The candidate of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Agboola Ajayi has finally cast his vote in the ongoing Ondo gubernatorial election in Ondo State.
Ajayi voted at his polling unit 004, Idumado Apoi 11, Kiribo, Ese-Odo Local Government Area of the state, after an initial delay caused by the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS).
Ajayi, who is a former deputy governor of the state, is one of the leading candidates in the election.
He is contesting against incumbent Governor Aiyedatiwa of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and 14 other candidates.
Speaking after casting his vote, Ajayi expressed dissatisfaction with the electoral process.
The PDP candidate said, “The system has been compromised. It’s sad INEC can’t conduct election well in one state. BVAS aren’t working, it took about 10 minutes to capture me. I think it is deliberate on the part of INEC and the REC, Mrs Oluwatoyin Babalola and we’ve said this several times that the woman can’t be fair.
“I have had series of complaints from across the state, people are complaining of vote buying. It is a very shameful exercise.”
