Businessman Isaac Fayose has accused the Independent National Electoral Commission of handing over uncollected voters’ cards to members of the All Progressives Congress in Ekiti State.
According to him, APC members in the state then hand the cards to non-indigenes who use them to vote for the party.
He alleged that the non-indigenes were given N20,000 each to cast votes during Saturday’s governorship election.
The allegations come as voting continues across the state, with opposition parties raising concerns about electoral malpractice.
The allegations, if true, would constitute a serious breach of electoral integrity.
Vote buying and misuse of PVCs undermine the credibility of the election.
The claims could fuel tensions and disputes over the election outcome.
INEC faces pressure to respond and assure the public of the process’s credibility.
The development could lead to legal challenges if the allegations are substantiated.
INEC must investigate the allegations promptly. The election’s credibility hangs in the balance.
