The All Progressives Congress (APC) Governorship Candidate in Osun State, Alhaji Isiaka Gboyega Oyetola, has commended the people of the state for refusing to be bought by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), which he accused of commercializing the votes in the Saturday governorship election.
“The Oyetola Campaign Organization commends the steadfastness of the people despite the commoditization of votes by the People’s Democratic Party (PDP). We are aware of the vote buying and selling strategy of the PDP. We are proud that the people are resisting the provocation and temptation to sell their conscience.”
In a statement today by his spokesman, the APC governorship hopeful called on the people in the state to be vigilant as they go back to truly elect their governor in the rescheduled election on Thursday.
“We appeal to the people to be vigilant and ready to jealously guard their votes on Thursday as the PDP have commenced massive commoditization of peoples mandate through massive purchase of voter cards.”
He denied that there is a rift between him and the state Governor, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, over last Saturday’s election, describing it as “irrational and present only in the imagination of detractors out to create disaffection within the APC camp ahead of Thursday’s Governorship Rerun.”
