The electoral commission, INEC, has declared the Osun State governorship election “inconclusive.”

The declaration was made by Joseph Fuwape, the presiding officer of the election at the INEC headquarters in Osun.

At the end of the collation of votes, the PDP candidate, Isiaka Adeleke, won majority votes of about 254,698 votes while Gboyega Oyetola of the APC came a close second with 254,345 votes. Both leading candidates had a difference of about 354 votes.

“Unfortunately as the returning officer, it’s not possible to declare anybody as the clear winner of the election on the first ballot,” Mr Fuwape said.

I told PDP that INEC was instructed NEVER to announce PDP as winners if APC lost the elections.

PDP must up their game and follow results from every polling unit until it is announced correctly by INEC.

The next move of APC and INEC is to flood OSUN with soldiers and prevent PDP from monitoring the voting and they will suddenly announce APC has won the elections.

Without vigilance, APC is determined to kill anybody to subvert the will of the people.
