The ministerial nominee from
Ekiti State, Adedayo Adeyeye, has urged the Chairman of the Independent
National Electoral Commission (INEC), Atahiru Jega, to monitor closely the
electoral officers assigned with the responsibility of conducting the June 21
governorship election in the state, saying, “there are insinuations that most
of the electoral officers posted by INEC to Ekiti have been compromised by the
All Progressives Congress (APC).”
Adeyeye, who maintained that the PDP in Ekiti State was sure of wining the
election in a free, fair and transparent atmosphere, urged INEC and security
agents to avoid being compromised by the APC. In a release issued on Thursday, Adeyeye said: “Ekiti people have made up their minds to replace the present government with a PDP government, and we hope that INEC officials will not collude with the APC to circumvent the wish of the people.”
Meanwhile, a former senator representing Ekiti South constituency, Sola Akinyede, on Thursday, said there would be nothing like federal might in Saturday’s governorship election in Ekiti state.
Speaking in a chat with Daily Independent, Akinyede, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) said the talk about the PDP using federal might to rig the election is mere propaganda sponsored by the All Progressives Congress (APC).
