Ondo Guber: We’ve uncovered their actions – PDP breaks silence, reveals next move

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP has rejected the outcome of the Saturday gubernatorial election in Ondo State, saying it will challenge the victory of the All Progressives Congress, APC.

the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC on Sunday declared Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa of APC, the winner of the election.

Aiyedatiwa polled a total of 366781 votes to defeat his counterpart in the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Ajayi Agboola, who also garnered 117845 votes.

But PDP in a statement issued on Tuesday by Ayo Fadaka, special adviser to the PDP governorship candidate in the election, Agboola, said the party has “uncovered lots of actions undertaken to compromise the electoral desires of the people”.

According to the party, the outcome of the election showed that democracy cannot “thrive in an environment where unabated criminality is perpetrated in the prosecution of an election by the agency, INEC, saddled with the responsibility to protect our franchise and deliver its mandate at the end of every election.”

The statement added that legal action against the results of the APC victory was the only option available to it in reversing the alleged stolen mandate.

“We are hopeful that man and God who is the ultimate will give us justice”, the statement added.
