Kwara State By-Election Was Held Under Charged, Tensed And Militarized Conditions --- Bukola Saraki Laments

Senator Bukola Saraki has lamented over the militarized condition the Kwara State by election was held.
He said that the by election was between the PDP and security agents plus APC and that this is the first time elections in Kwara State will be held under such charged, tensed and militarized conditions

According to his tweet, he said,"We thank the people of Ekiti/Oke Ero/Isin/Irepodun who came out to vote today — defying the heavy intimidation and the siege laid by the security agents and thugs invited into the 4 LGAs by the APC"

"The public should note that today’s #KwaraByElection was simply between PDP and security agents plus APC. This was due to the heavy deployment of police, soldiers and other security agents who gathered to support APC and harass PDP leaders and supoorters."

"This is the first time that elections in Kwara State will be held under such charged, tensed and militarised conditions. We had INEC officials complaining about their own safety — and PDP supporters were brazenly intimidated, which resulted in low turn out of voters."

"It is important to reiterate that ahead of the 2019 elections, such open displays of intimidation are sending wrong signals. Our democracy is being undermined with this misuse of our nation’s security apparatus."
