Politicians are trying to outspend one another in the ongoing governorship election in Ekiti as voters and security operatives are being induced.

Our observers have witnessed different instances of vote buying and inducement of security operatives and some INEC officials across the state.

The election started on a peaceful note across many polling units and voters trooped out en masse.

However, no sooner than accreditation commence did politicians start reaching out to voters through party agents.

At Polling Unit 002, St Mary Catholic Nur/Pry School, Oye Local Government Area, people commented openly on how political parties were doling out cash to voters.

The three leading parties in the election are said to be involved in the act.

While one is said to be giving out N10,000 to a voter, the remaining two are allegedly bribing voters with N5,000 each.

Some security operatives were caught on camera running after a politician who gave them money that they shared outside the polling units they were deployed to.

In one of the polling units at Ward 10 Afao/Kajola, Ikere LGA, security personnel, and INEC ad hoc staff threatened to stop work, claiming that the money given to them was small compared to what they got from other parties.

At Polling Unit 003, Ward 1, Asin in Ikole LGA, voters marched to a spot behind a GSM mast where money was shared by an agent of one of the three leading parties.

No be to collect from the trio still no vote?


Laughing in a godly way.

Interesting.
Ekiti People should vote their conscience abeg o!

Don't blame the politicians but the voters who willingly to sell their conscience for pittance

This is APC candidate, Abiodun Oyebanji, caught in the act of greasing the palms of an electorate.

You wouldn't expect her to vote somebody else, would you ?

Noted.

Nigerians please wise up, they say they want to serve you, why spend so much money to do that?

They only want to go there and feather their nests.

That's what poverty and hardship has reduced the citizens to, they are not thinking about good governance but survival

Las Las everybody go dey alright....

When I dey tell all this online voters making Noise that on election day derr vote will be canceled with money dey always come for my head....


As long as poverty keep existing Vote buying will continue to rain...


Even the so called youth go colet as the old dey colet....

APC deliberately promote hunger to reset peoples brain

People are always ready to compromise once carrots are dangled in their face, mostly those who have no act of discipline. If the system isn't ready to punish politicians that entice the electorates with soft baits, to compromise on the voting outcome, then we can never get it right. The circle of getting bad leaders will keep repeating everything 4 years.

There's no way electorates will not collect money offered to them by political parties during election because of these two factors; poverty and ignorance.

If poverty didn't make an electorate to collect money then ignorance will.

Useless set of bastards

Told people earlier.

There is so much hunger in the land .....it will be difficult for people to reject money right in front of them for hope messages.

The earlier youth online realise this the better so the shock wouldn't be much in 2023.

Hnnmm

and they expect change in the country, you see why I said ,Peter obi will not win , it's because of the kind of dunce we live with, tomorrow them go ,go church to pray for better Nigeria not knowing they were the cause of the problem ,like said before ,japa from Nigeria even if na the nearest ghana

CNED TECH COMPANY

...and poverty RAINS thereafter.

You've got to love Nigerians.

P.S
Divide any amount of money offered to you by 1,460 (I.e., the number of days in the next 4 years). That's the amount they use to buy you daily.

If you collect 5k, that means they àssrape you for 3 naira daily for the rest of the 4 years

They can only work on the old people must youth won't accept

The campaign war chest of APC is massive. PDP wil struggle. Labour party will hide. How do we rescue this country from the hands of the rural dwellers who don't know much about politics beyond logo of a party and souvenirs?

Poverty.

Bad optics....but culturally we give alot....infact it is expected that when you are doing well financially you should always "dash" money to people.

bro u are right but 70 percent won't accept

So sad right now

The only way you're permitted to vote candidate that gives you money is to make sure he gives you enough that will last for his tenure, anything outside that is foolishness. I don't know why Nigerians don't learn
