Jimoh Ibrahim declares self Ondo PDP candidate, says INEC official demanded $1m bribe

Factional candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the Ondo State governorship election, Jimoh Ibrahim, has accused the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, of rejecting his papers as the authentic candidate of the PDP.
He told newsmen on Sunday that INEC was not an appeal Court, therefore, cannot determine who is the PDP candidate in the election.
Ibrahim, who was produced by the Ali Modu Sheriff faction of the party, insisted he remained the PDP candidate in Ondo, citing last week judgement of an Abuja high Court which ruled that the Electoral body should recognise him.
Jimoh Ibrahim said though the electoral body had said it will obey the court judgement immediately it was served, the music changed “immediately INEC was served the judgement.”
“After the service, the music changed. INEC should not allow one governor to destroy its reputation. One of the officials demanded for one million dollar bribe from me to process the court judgement”, he alleged.
The PDP chieftain who said he had petitioned president Muhammadu Buhari and reported the official to the INEC chairman, also demanded the removal of the Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) in Ondo State, saying that he was a card carrying member of the PDP.
Reacting, the Chief Press Secretary to the INEC chairman, Rotimi Oyekunmi said ”it is not true that Mrs Babalola demanded one million dollar bribe from Jimoh Ibrahim.
“Two other officials of INEC witnessed the encounter between Mrs Babalola and Jimoh Ibrahim. Jimoh Ibrahim brought a copy of his judgement and wanted to impress it on INEC to collect it.
“But we told him that we already have it. It is uncharitable and ungodly of businessman of his stature to make this kind of allegation”, he said.

How a billionaire like Jimoh Ibrahim will accept to be used by an ordinary Sherrif for this kind of pettiness beats my wildest imagination

let's assume Jimoh Ibrahim is the sole candidate of PDP or even APC I can bet anything in this Ondo State that if a Native He-Goat was to come out under any platform be it Labour Party or other unpopular party that Native He-Goat will still floor this clown of a loud mouth who is as broke as a church rat.
