A few days before the Ondo state governorship election, Atiku Abubakar, the former Vice President, has charged the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, and security agencies, to be impartial in the election slated for Saturday, 16th of November 2024.
This was contained in a statement made available to the newsmen by Paul Ibe, the Media Adviser to the former Vice President.
He, however, threw his support behind Hon. Agboola Ajayi, the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, candidate in the election, describing him as a consummate politician, who has what it takes to not only galvanize the party to victory in the election but also improve the lot of Ondo people.
Atiku said, “This is also a sound warning to all election management officials and volunteers that the PDP will stand firmly against any malpractice in the Ondo governorship election.
“The governorship election that is coming up in Ondo State this Saturday presents an opportunity for the people of Ondo State to elevate the condition of the state into increased prosperity.
“The APC, as it has been made clear to everyone, is a grossly unpopular party which does not have the interest of the people as a core objective.
“The APC, as it has been made clear to everyone, is a grossly unpopular party which does not have the interest of the people as a core objective.
“The people of Ondo State have an opportunity in Hon. Ajayi of the PDP to tell the APC that enough is enough.
“As leaders of the party, we shall provide all necessary support to ensure that the APC is not allowed to repress the wishes of the electorate in this election.”
