Mr. Agboola Ajayi, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate in the Ondo State governorship election, has voiced concerns over the handling of the election in Kiribo, Ese-Odo Local Government Area of the State.
Ajayi, who was accredited and cast his vote at Unit 4, Ward 2, Idumado in Kiribo at 10:45 a.m., expressed his frustration over the delay in the voting process.
The former deputy governor revealed that it took over 10 minutes for the INEC Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS) to successfully capture his details.
“The system is not perfect and there are lots of complainants here and there.
“If INEC cannot successfully organise an election in just one state, then you must know that we are running into anarchy.
“I think it is delibrate on the part of INEC, on the part of the Resident Electoral Commission (REC).

“And we have said it severally that we don’t trust Barr. Oluwatoyin Babalola (REC). That this woman cannot be fair.
“The system is compromised and we have series of calls made by everybody. People are complaining of vote buying, BVAS problem. It is a very shameful exercise,” he said.
Agboola also called for the resignation of Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, the INEC chairman,
“And I think people should call on the INEC chairman to resign if he cannot do the job. He should just resign.
“It is totally compromised. This is sad and Nigerians are not happy. Here, it is peaceful to some extent,” he said.
