₦airaland Forum

Last week, online news medium Sahara Reporters published the numbers of Nigerian senators so that the citizens can socialise with them.

Since then, Nigerians have been bombarding the distinguished senators with texts and calls, and in the process interesting revelations are coming to light as citizens interact with them outside the campaign arena.

A Nigerian senator has just allegedly admitted that she paid money for the votes that elected her into the National Assembly.

Senator Abiodun Olujimi, who was Governor Ayodele Fayose’s deputy from 2003 to October 16, 2006 and is currently representing Ekiti South senatorial district made this admission in a text message the senator sent a tweeter who contacted her.

People used a caller ID app to check the number out and confirmed that the number was authentic and genuinely belonged to senator Olujimi.

that's the beauty of democracy

Ekiti Election was bought with 1.5k each, 500 naira for voters to leave their homed & 1k was handed over when the agent was "subtly" shown a thumb printed paper that conformed to "specification"

Not trying to exonerate the other party cos they probably would have done the same in their strong holds but their agents were either in police cells or knew better than to dare Fayose's thug...

Stomach infrastructure is REAL....

Which way, Nigeria? Below is the text message sent by the constituent which precipitated Olujimi's scandalous admission

Ekiti People pictured selling their souls for 5kg bag of rice..

Please dont blame the Woman, as long as poverty remains, the souls of Nigerians will continue to be up for sale.

This is interesting

'I paid every inch of the way...'


How does the statement above amount to admittance of bribery? APC self na wa o!



A ruling party that still engage in propaganda. Is that the $1 to #1 exchange rate that they promised in their campaign? The 20,000 mega watts nko? 3 million jobs annually. 5K for unemployed graduate nko? 20,000 housing units in every APC state. This Govt is just pathetic!


Formerly a Zombie, but now a wailer.

Ekiti state and drama

APC people are running amok today with all sorts of spurious stories.

I dey watch una on HD...

And so? what is Wrong with that
Did she tie your hand to vote? you nor get sense?
Even if she gave money out is there a law that stops politicians from dishing out cash? as far as she did not force u or intimidate/compel anyone to vote then she is good to go!
So boy, stop crying fowl, go and work and earn a living rather than coming here to cry! She spent money to get there simple! It worked for her....

I'm not suprise though cuz she's not the only one who did it in the previous election

To me, she is not the only person that gave out bribe. All the the senators and mostly politicians pay for their way I n. In Nigeria politics, it is a normal norm

So many illiterates.... so because she wrote "I paid every inch" means she paid for vote? damn

I said it......but nobody bliv me.

Na wa oooo

They all are same. Birds of one feather. Politricians.. Polithiefians.. Poliecians Legal criminals..
Gosh! I hate them. if only I was a sniper
but I am not a sniper n

Abeg who free and fair election epp?
