A former Governor of Osun State,
Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola, has called on the Independent National Electoral
Commission, INEC, to save the state from unnecessary tension.
The politician said INEC should
declare Ademola Adeleke of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, winner of the
governorship election held on Saturday.
Oyinlola spoke to journalists in
Osogbo, the Osun State capital on Monday.
He noted that neither INEC nor
any political party had the right to subvert the constitution and the peace of
the state.
He said, “INEC’s position is
double-standard. The same INEC had returned winners in recent election with
similar cases, especially in Kogi and Bauchi states.
“I call on INEC to reverse itself
because the constitution and the Electoral Act are very clear on this matter.
The winner must be declared forthwith.”
