Femi Fani-Kayode, former Aviation
Minister has reacted to the rejection of the Ekiti State governorship election
result by independent observers.
All Progressive Congress (APC)
candidate, in Saturday’s governorship election, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, was declared
the winner of the poll.
A Coalition of observer groups
and Civil Society Organisations, that monitored the elections rejected the
emergence of Fayemi.
In a press statement signed by
Comrade Haruna Farouk and Nze Adachi Okoro, the group said the election does
not reflect what they saw on ground.
The coalition also promised to
release its findings on Wednesday, July 18, which will include details of the
malpractices that marred the election.
Reacting to the declaration by
the coalition, Fani-Kayode urged the outgoing Governor of the state, Ayodele
Fayose to take the matter to the election tribunal.
In a tweet, Fani-Kayode wrote:
“Glad to hear that the Coalition of Election Observers have rejected the Ekiti
results. I look forward to hearing the details of their findings which they say
they will release on Wednesday.
“I urge @GovAyoFayose and
@OfficialPDPNig to take up the matter at the election tribunal.
“Insecurity is at its peak, the
slaughter of Nigerians is unprecedented, the country is divided, the economy is
in shambles, the military are aggrieved because Buhari has not appointed new
Service Chiefs, the votes are procured with public funds and elections are
rigged. Wither Nigeria?”
