PDP Accuses APC Of Buying Votes Ahead Of Ondo Governorship Election
By Emmanuel Awosika
The Peoples Democratic Party in Ondo State has accused the Ondo State branch of the All Progressives Congress of buying Permanent Voters Card from Okada riders ahead of the forthcoming governorship election in the state.
The Ondo State PDP made this allegation in a statement released by its Publicity Secretary, Mr. Kennedy Peretei, in Akure yesterday.
The statement reads, “The PDP in Ondo State, has it on good authority that the APC-led government is inviting commercial motorcycle operators in the state to the Government House to submit their PVCs in exchange for money.
“We wish to remind the Motorcycle operators that such a development is only aimed at further impoverishing and denying them of their social responsibility.”
However, the Publicity Secretary for the Ondo State APC, Mr. Alex Kalejaiye, has denied the allegations, stating that the PDP had become “jittery”.
“Our party does not need to collect PVCs ahead of the election. The jittery opposition had withdrawn from the race before it leads its unsuspecting supporters on an endless ego trip,” he said.
