The gubernatorial candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Chief Segun Oni, has condemned and rejected the outcome of Saturday’s governorship election.
The former Governor of Ekiti State has vowed to challenge the outcome of the result in the court.
His state collation agent who’s also the former attorney-general of the state, Owoseni Ajayi, while speaking on behalf of Oni, said the election was not a reflection of the true decision of the people.
He added that the electoral process was marred by votes buying and financial inducement.
Ajayi, after refusing to sign the election results, said, “we are rejecting the results because the election was characterised by violence and intimidation of voters and as a result, we will definitely challenge the outcome of these results in the court of law for prosterity and for generation coming to know that when conducting elections, you must follow the rules and procedures.”
Recall that the ruling All Progressives Congress’ APC’s Biodun Oyebanji was announced the winner of the election.
