Human rights Activist Mr. Charles Oputa popularly known as Charly Boy has lambasted the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), accusing the commission of colluding with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to compromise the governorship election in Osun state.
Federal Government, ASUU Fail to reach agreement as Strike Continues
Charly Boy said the September 22 and 27 gubernatorial election in Osun State must be further probed to ascertain alleged connivance between INEC and the APC.
He said further that it was necessary for every Nigerian to ensure that future elections in the country reflects the true wishes of the people as future generations will question the roles played by this generation of Nigerians in entrenching free and fair elections in the country.
Charly Boy expressed this view while speaking at a Colloquium organised by the Oodua Youth Development Initiative, in collaboration with Virtues Unlimited Restorative Justice Initiative in Osogbo, the Osun State capital.
The human rights activists accused some INEC officials of conniving with the ruling APC to work against the interest of the people in Osun state.
He identified lack of transparency, harassment of observers and press men, as well as the failure of INEC Card readers as some of the issues that marred the exercise declared to have been won by APC.
He charged Nigerian youths to rise up in defence of true democracy, and support selfless leadership predicated on rule of law and natural justice.
A representative of the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP), Dr Lere Oyewunmi speaking at the event also accused INEC of tampering with card readers in favour of the ruling APC during the poll.
He alleged that the card readers were pre-loaded with accreditation while features that identify the genuineness of voters’ cards were disabled ahead of the governorhip election.
The PDP representative called for public vigilance ahead of the 2019 general elections, while also advising political parties to engage well educated and politically motivated persons as party agents.
