Osun State Governor, Rauf
Aregbesola, has described leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, as,
“mentally unstable.”
The Governor was reacting to the
protest by some leaders of the party at the headquarters of the Independent
National Electoral Commission, INEC, over the conduct of the state governorship
election.
Aregbesola said this in an
interview with State House correspondents shortly after he formally presented
the Osun State Governor-elect, Gboyega Oyetola, to President Muhammadu Buhari
at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
The President of the Senate,
Bukola Saraki; Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, and the
National Chairman of the PDP, Uche Secondus, were among the PDP leaders that
staged a protest against the outcome of the election at the INEC headquarters
in Abuja.
Saraki, Speaker of the House of
Representatives, Yakubu Dogara; and the National Chairman of the party, Uche
Secondus, had led the protesters to INEC office after they had earlier
converged at the national headquarters of the PDP in Abuja.
Also among the protesters were
Governor Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto State; former Niger State Governor and
presidential aspirant, Sule Lamido; and Senator Dino Melaye, among others.
They want the electoral umpire to
declare PDP candidate, Ademola Adeleke as the winner of the Osun election.
