PDP Candidates Blast Party For Boycotting Ondo LG Poll

The candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the forthcoming local council election in Ondo State on Thursday lashed the party for allegedly throwing them under the bus over the resolve to withdraw from the poll.
The election is scheduled to hold on Saturday.
The chairmanship candidate of the PDP in Akure South Local Council, Tuyi Adekambi, who berated the party leadership over the move, maintained that the party betrayed democracy with the action.
According to Adekambi, most of the electorate were already rooting for PDP in Akure, but the sudden withdrawal of the party distorted all the permutations.
The chairmanship candidate emphasized that, โFor the party to withdraw just 72 hours before the election is a betrayal, not only to us as candidates but also to the people of Akure South, who have supported us.
โWe believe we have a strong chance of winning, with nearly 85 percent support from the electorate. The decision to boycott the election is an aberration, an infringement of our rights, and a disservice to democracy.
โWe want to make it clear that no one bought us over, contrary to any rumors. This decision was solely made by the party leadership without our input.
โIf a local government election cannot proceed transparently, then we must question the motives behind this action.โ
