OSUN BYE ELECTION: COLLATION CENTRE UNDER SECURITY THREAT

The Osun state chapter of the People’s Democratic Party has called on the Independent National Electoral Commission to change the proposed venue of the collation centre for the Saturday July 8 Osun West Senatorial by-election

The PDP state chairman, Hon Adagunodo in a statement issued at the early hours of Thursday alleged that there are incontrovertible evidence that the APC has planted fetish items and other dangerous weapons in the school ahead of the collation exercise.

Hon Adagunodo therefore called on the Independent National Electoral Commission to change the collation centre from Baptist High School, Adeeke Iwo in view of the fact that the All Progressive Congress is using the place for its rally today.

The PDP state chairman in the release said “From time immemorial, campaigns in Iwo have been held at the palace square. Why the APC chose to hold its rally in Baptist High school, Adeeke, Iwo which is the proposed collation centre calls for serious concern and urgent action of security agencies and the INEC.”

“It is therefore highly expedient to alert the general public about these devilish plans and call on the INEC to immediately find an alternate and safer location to be used as collation centre on Saturday”
