The candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the ongoing governorship election in Ondo State, Agboola Ajayi, has accused the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, of compromise.
Mr Ajayi called on the INEC chairman, Mahmood Yakubu, to resign if he cannot conduct a credible election in the country.
He made the call shortly after casting his vote at polling unit 4 Idumado Quarter Kiribo in Ese-Odo LGA.
While lamenting the challenges encountered with the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System, BVAS machine for accreditation, Mr Ajayi said the commission under Mr Yakubu had been falling short of experience of electorates.
“I think Nigerians should call on the chairman, Professor Mahmood Yakubu. If he cannot do the job, he should just resign. This is embarrassing. This is sad and Nigerians are not happy,” he said.
Mr Ajayi also faulted the presence of armed military officers and security agents, saying we are not at war.
“If INEC cannot conduct a successful in election in one state, you must know that we are running into anarchy,” he said.
