Edo Decides 2020: My Experience Voting by BarristerAlarig: 10:15pm On Sep 19, 2020 |
Good evening everyone. I wouldn't bore anyone with irrelevant information, so I'd go straight to the point. I am an indigene of Edo state. I am from Ikpoba okha LGA, ward 5, unit 28. The voting center is Oguola secondary school located at St saviour. Aside the late arrival of electoral officers and materials, which was expected by the way, I experienced something very disturbing. There was no privacy when voting. Party members were with us while we voted. PDP agents gave out N1000 to people who cast their vote for PDP while APC agents shared N1500 to voters voting their Party. The other political parties didn't give out money to the best of my knowledge. Aside the disturbing trend of vote buying involving both PDP and APC party agents, another alarming trend was security personnel aiding these party agents or turning a blind eye. The security agents were aware,involved and aided party agents in vote buying. The most disturbing of it all was the lack of privacy while casting your votes. Party agents had to see who one votes for before the ballot paper is inserted into the ballot box. I had to shout at these mad men before i was reward with 2seconds of privacy. I'd love to write more, but I am tired and sad about the state of things. Nigeria has gone to the dogs. 5 Likes 1 Share |

At op, I concur with u. I actually cast my vote in esan north-northeast. With what I saw today, I have come to d conclusion that PDP winning this election is largely dependent on d neutrality of d police and INEC. 1 Like |

OP you have not said anything worthy to ruminate over. Vote buying... this is not new and it's a given. If you want to write, please be sure you are ready before picking up your keyboard. Not attach big headings to an empty thread. |

Very correct,obaseki did not win the election because he's in PDP, he won because Edo people love him, Both APC and PDP are the same,and both were involved in vote buying,in my unit PDP paid 3k, while APC paid 5k |
