Ondo Decides 2024: APC thugs have invaded Idanre – PDP running mate, Akingbaso alleges
Amid the ongoing governorship election in Ondo State, thugs have reportedly invaded Idanre Local Government Area of the state.
This was disclosed by the running mate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, governorship candidate, Festus Akingbaso.
Akingbaso, a member of the House of Representatives, spoke while addressing journalists after casting his vote at Polling Unit 005, Oke Imikan.
The lawmaker expressed satisfaction with voter turnout and the security arrangements at his polling unit but voiced his apprehension over reports of thugs allegedly disrupting the election process in the area.
He claimed that the thugs were mobilized by the All Progressives Congress, APC.
“The turnout of voters is not bad, and the security situation here is commendable. I want to appreciate INEC as their performance so far has been satisfactory.
“However, my advice to voters is that after casting their votes, they should stay behind and monitor proceedings until the final results are announced. If everything goes smoothly, I am confident my party will win.
“Information reaching me indicates that several villages are overrun by thugs allegedly brought in by the APC.
“Villages such as Ofosun, Omifunfun, and Allah are reportedly occupied. In Igbepo, suspected thugs have gathered in large numbers,” Akingbaso said.
