OSOGBO (NAN) – The Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) has dismissed the allegation by the All
Progressives Congress (APC) of a grand design
by the party to rig Saturday's Osun
gubernatorial election.
Chief John Oyegun, APC National Chairman, on
Thursday at a news conference in Osogbo alleged
that the PDP had concluded plans to rig the
election in all the 30 local government areas of
the state.
Oyegun called on Prof. Attahiru Jega, INEC
Chairman and Suleiman Abba , acting Inspector
General of Police, to stop the alleged plan to rig
the election in the interest of peace and fair play.
Oyegun was in company of Alhaji Lai
Muhammed, APC National Publicity Secretary;
Muheez Banire , Lagos State Commissioner for
Environment and Adebiyi Adelowo, Osun
APC Chairman, among others.
However, Diran Odeyemi, PDP Director of Publicity
and Research, said the allegation was a figment
of the APC's imagination.
"APC is crying wolf where there is none. There is
no basis for rigging at all. We have been
campaigning for one-man-one woman-vote and
every vote must count.
"Such allegation is the style of the APC. The
party is just heating up the polity to cause
tension but what we believe is that the
electorate will decide," he said.
