Speaking on Tuesday (today) while appearing live on Channels Television’s The 2023 Verdict, the Director General of Obi/Datti Presidential Campaign Council, Akin Osuntokun expressed doubt that everything is set for the presidential election slated for Saturday, February 25th.NYSC portal

According to him, voter suppression through violence remained a worrying factor. The LP chieftain also noted that the over-voting recorded in the Osun State Governorship elections, which the Tribunal used as a prerequisite to nullify the victory of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state, despite the introduction of the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS), was another worrying factor.

The LP campaign DG stressed that he would not score the preparation of the election 100 per cent because of such factors.

Osuntokun said, “I won’t score the preparation 100 per cent; there are some factors that challenge that conclusion. The predisposition to voter suppression through violence, we have been a victim of that, especially in Lagos.

“INEC people actually responded to people looking for their PVCs discriminatorily, and when we had the rally in Lagos, our supporters were prevented in certain areas from coming to the Tafawa Balewa Square and some of them were injured. As we speak, one of them has had his hand amputated.

“So when you take these into consideration, you cannot be confident that this is going to work well.

“And as I remarked once the fact that the BVAS or the electronic transmission introduction to the system is supposed to preclude the possibility of over-voting, but according to the judgement of the tribunal on the Osun State election that was conducted a while ago, the tribunal nullified the victory of the PDP on account of over-voting, now were does that come in?” Osuntokun questioned.JAMB Result
