Earlier today, two men have been caught at the venue of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) primary election with ballot papers already thumb-marked for Agboola Ajayi, one of the aspirants and deputy governor of the state.
According to report gathered, one of the men caught is a chieftain of the party in Ose Local Government Area of the State.
The spokesperson of the party, Zadok Akintoye, confirmed the development but said they were caught outside the election venue,VOICE AIR MEDIA has learnt.
“Yes, it happened but not inside the hall where the election is taking place. Election is currently going on smoothly and aspirants have been told to warn their supporters against coming close to the election venue,” he told Reporter.
He also said that all aspirants have dissociated themselves from the already thumb-marked papers.
While reacting, the Chief Press Secretary to Mr Ajayi Agboola, Tope Okeowo, said the men were caught with “specimen” and not original ballot paper for the primary election.
“They were seen with specimens with agents to educate delegates,” Mr Okeowo said, adding that the development is just “propaganda against his principal.”
The state police spokesperson, Tee Leo-Ikoro, said he is yet to be briefed about the development.
