A Civil Society Organisation, Yiaga Africa, says the Ondo State governorship election was marred with vote-buying and inadequate compliance with COVID-19 protocol.
Co-chair, Yiaga Africa 2020 Ondo Election Observation Mission, Dr Aisha Abdullahi, stated this on Saturday at a press conference on the situational report on the election.
“Despite attempts by officials to prevent voters and party agents from showing how ballot papers were marked, these electoral offences occurred in the presence of security personnel who made no attempt in some cases to reprimand the culprits,” she said.
