Osun re-run: Davido, Saraki, Others rejects INEC's result, lament political situation in Nigeria
Senate president Bukola Saraki has reacted to Osun rerun election - INEC on Friday morning, September 28, declared the candidate of APC, Gboyega Oyetola, as the winner of the election - Saraki, however, described the rerun as a sham and biggest electoral fraud in Nigeria The Senate president, Bukola Saraki, has described Thursday, September 27, rerun election held in Osun state as a total sham and the biggest electoral fraud in the history of the country. Channels TV reports that Saraki, who is also a presidential aspirant in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), stated this while addressing journalists during his campaign tour in Kaduna state.
Information gathered proves that the Senate president consequently called for the cancellation of the result, especially in view of the complaints made about the supplementary election. Saraki accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of rigging the election, stressing that the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Ademola Adeleke, ought to have been declared the winner by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Sunday, September 23.
This, he said, is because Adeleke had polled the highest number of votes based on the vote count on Sunday, September 23. According to him, the alleged brazen rigging that characterized the rerun election shows that the ruling APC is desperately working to resist any form of opposition ahead of the 2019 election.
Meanwhile, other notable Nigerians took to social media to express dissatisfaction in regards to unfair electoral process in Osun state, calling the actions of the APC party members as alarming and destructive.
Femi Fani Kayode released a press statement accusing the APC and Buhari's administration of sending the country down the drain with this new development.
Also, Superstar musician Davido yesterday retweeted a tweet by DailyTrust lamenting the Osun State rerun, no doubt Davido has been a strong supporter of political figures in Nigeria, he actively supported his uncle and Osun PDP candidate Ademola Adeleke, he rejected the election result released by INEC and has publicly lamented the ill political state of the country.
