The Deputy Governor of Ondo State who is also the candidate of the Zenith Labour Party (ZLP) Hon Agboola Ajayi has accused security operatives of compromise in the ongoing governorship election.
Hon Ajayi who cast his ballot at about 11.15 am, Ajayi told reporters at his polling unit in Kiribo, Ese-Odo Local Government that security agencies did a bad job from what he has observed so far during the election adding that they had compromised the system.
He said: “So far, so good. The procedure being adopted by INEC is okay, but from what I have seen, there appears to be a compromise on the part of security agencies.”
The ZLP candidate said he thought that the time had come when elections will be conducted without cases of ballot box snatching, “thinking that things were gradually going back to normal but it appears we are going back to the era of ballot box snatching and violence.”
He called on INEC to cancel the result of the units in Owo where a video was circulating on social media suggested that there were electoral malpractices at some polling units.
Ajayi stated that circumstances like that in saner climes lead to cancellation of the results of the area affected..
