The deputy governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Justice Olamide Oloyede (retd) has claimed that he was told that the Saturday’s governorship election in Osun would be cancelled in exactly the way the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, nullified it.

According to her, it was strange that what he was told came to fruition, adding that the action was orchestrated.

She said this while flaying INEC for declaring the election inconclusive, adding that the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Senator Ademola Adeleke, ought to have been declared the winner of the election.

Oloyede, who spoke with Punch in Osogbo, the Osun State capital on Monday, said the cancellation of votes in those polling units were orchestrated before the election and it was unfortunate that the INEC allowed itself to be used to rob the people of the state.

She said, “The people have spoken and that is the beauty of democracy. What the people said should be allowed to stand and whatever we do today will become history in the future.

“There have been antecedents, Kogi State is one, Oshiomhole’s case is another one. The cancelled votes were not deducted from the voters and they did not affect the winners of the elections in any way.

“That is why I am a bit worried now. I am worried and I said to myself, why are they making Osun State an exemption in this case? Once you cancelled votes, they no longer form parts of the valid votes. So why will you now be deducting cancelled votes in this case? What kind of mathematics is INEC now involved in?

“It is rather an orchestrated thing. I was told by somebody before the election that votes from these areas would be cancelled but I did not believe the person. I was shocked when what he said came to pass. What he said was very accurate and I began to wonder because this is strange.”

Bla bla bla

Will you keep kwayet !!... So you don't know that a stitch in time saves nine?

Why are you telling us now

what baffles me is the number of votes that APC got, i didnt expect APC to get up to 5000 votes, it seems that the people of osun are enjoying the hardship of unpaid salaries and other evils perpetrated by aregbesola

Afonjas make una fear God o. To imagine you guys voted for Aregbe to keep fucking you all in your arses baffles me. APC should have even contested that election in the first place.

This one is mistaking invalid votes for cancelled votes, they are two different things.
