The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Ekiti State has accused the
\nruling All Progressives Congress (APC) of plotting massive vote buying
\nfor the Saturday Presidential and National Assembly elections,
\nalleging that a sum of of N112.5bn has been earmarked to buy projected
\n15 million votes at N7,500 per vote.<\/p>\n

The PDP said “Their plots are in two folds. While they are forging
\nahead with their clandestine plot to compromise the Independent
\nNational Electoral Commission (INEC) and rig the elections by getting
\nthe electoral commission to produce two sets of result sheets (Form
\nEC8A) for some selected polling units across the country, they are
\nalso plotting massive vote buying.”<\/p>\n

Director of Media and Publicity of the Atiku\/Obi PDP Presidential
\nCampaign Council in Ekiti State, Lere Olayinka, who made the
\nallegation in a statement issued on Monday, alleged that “50 percent
\nof the $322 million recovered Abacha loot is being deployed into the
\nvote buying plot while each APC controlled State has been billed
\nminimum of N3 billion with Lagos to contribute N40 billion.”<\/p>\n

The PDP alleged that security agents are to be instructed to provide
\ncover for all APC stalwarts to be assigned with the responsibility of
\nascertaining voters compliance and\u00a0 making payments to voters who
\ncomplied.<\/p>\n

The party called on voters to reject monetary inducement from the APC,
\nsaying “those who impoverished Nigerians and caused loss of over 10
\nmillion jobs must not be allowed to pay themselves into power.<\/p>\n

While calling on agents of the PDP and other opposition parties to be
\nextra vigilant and ensure that votes at the various polling units are
\nproperly recorded in relevant INEC forms, the PDP said “Ekiti and Osun
\ngovernorship election was rigged with the alteration of result sheets
\nand allocation of figures different from votes recorded at the polling
\nunits to the APC and same is being planned for the coming elections.<\/p>\n

The PDP, which also called on security agents to maintain neutrality
\nin the elections, added that “democracy will be in serious danger the
\nmoment the electorate rights to choose is taken away.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
