The Gubernatorial Candidate of the Alliance for Democracy
(AD) in Ondo State, Chief Olusola Oke on Monday congratulated Mr Rotimi
Akeredolu of the All Peoples Congress (APC) who won last Saturday’s election
even as he decried the heavy monetization of the election process.
Oke who addressed the Press in Akure commended both the
Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the security agents
deployed to the State for being fair in the handling of their duties but
regretted that the open and free use of money to purchase votes during the
election by the ruling parties remains a sad commentary on the nation’s
electoral process.
This development, according to him, required the urgent
intervention by government if the much publicized anti-corruption agenda of the
Federal Government must have meaning to Nigerians.
