Ekiti: Keyamo Speaks On APC’s Involvement In Voting Buying

Festus Keyamo, Minister of State for Labour and Employment, has stated that reports of vote-buying during the governorship election in Ekiti State were not solely associated with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Keyamo’s statement follows reports that the APC was involved in widespread vote buying and selling in the Ekiti elections.

The claims, according to the minister’s statement on Twitter, are merely subliminal messages sent by opposition parties in order to ensure that the ruling party loses the election.

“Incidences of vote-buying can’t be synonymous only with the ruling party, but the subtle message the other parties try to pass to the gullible is that only the ruling party engages in illegalities & that the only way an election can be deemed credible is if the ruling party loses,” Keyamo lamented.
