Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki has alleged that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is manipulating the ongoing governorship election in Edo State.
In a statement issued on Saturday by Crusoe Osagie, his Special Adviser, Onaseki cried out that “there is an ongoing deliberate election manipulation in areas where he has strongholds.
“Suddenly, card readers are not working in areas where Governor Godwin Obaseki is very popular.
“Voters are being disenfranchised and we are constrained to say that this is sabotage. Specifically, in Oredo Ward 1, Unit 20 and other places where the Governor is clearly popular, the card readers are not working.
“The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) should prove to Edo voters that it can conduct a credible election in Edo State.”
KanyiDailh had earlier reported that the Department of State Security (DSS) arrested an alleged supporter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) by for vote-buying during the ongoing governorship election in Edo State.
