Ondo election: Akeredolu In Early Lead, As Oke Lags Behind Jegede Candidates of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Rotimi Akeredolu, SAN, and his Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) rival, Eyitayo Jegede, SAN, were locked in a tight race, yesterday, according to unofficial results collated from Ondo State governorship election. Unofficial results from 18 local councils of the state, which are subject to authentication by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), indicate that Akeredolu is slightly in the lead with Jegede trailing closely behind in the election that was largely peaceful and witnessed impressive voters’ turnout. Unconfirmed figures indicate that Akeredolu won in 10 councils while latecomer into the race, Eyitayo Jegede of the PDP had the upper hand in eight. INEC will release the official results today Sunday, November 27. The Ondo governorship election was said to have been highly monetised as voters were allegedly induced with money before voting. Sources said between N400,000 and N450,000 were sent to each of the 3,009 units in the state by a particular party . Security agents, according to the source, looked the other way as voters were given between N3,000 and N6,000 each to vote. http://www.jalupon.com/ondo-election-akeredolu-in-early-lead-as-oke-lags-behind-jegede/

Mimiko had to fill the incident form before he was finally allowed to cast his vote at about 12 noon. http://saharareporters.com/2016/11/26/apc-candidate-akeredolu-leads-ondo-governorship-election |

Nigerians are known to be mortgaging their future for a petty cash sharing at a polling station, an act that is inimical to the true growth of democracy. This is crazy life. Why can't the vagabond carrying this money to each polling stations be arrested, this is highly illegal and unacceptable. 2 Likes 1 Share |

sexycat:There is mad hunger in the land and from the amount said to be shared, there is no way people won't comply. Is it not the same people that voted for Gaari, Sugar and Salt? They will now reject a whole 3 or 4k? 1 Like |

Africonji:Lol -  As if Nigerians outside the Southwest are also not hungry. Why did Buhari's nickname become Gaari and his Deputy Osinbajo now called groundnut in the North? HUNGER!!! Didn't Arthur Nzeribe have the audacity to tell people from his constituency that they voted for his money and not him, and that it was his money that elected him? Politics everywhere require huge war chest. And the case of Nigeria is ridiculously peculiar and it cuts across all geopolitical zones where the masses are hungry. 1 Like |

HungerBAD:Jegede lost the level playing ground opportunity with Jimoh and Modu the spoiler. And yes, the ballot includes who can pay more for the people's thumbprint.  1 Like |

Greycells:You speak as if these things are new in our political sphere. Sharing of money at poll units, though wrong, is done by the major political parties, and it has been so for a very long time. 1 Like |
