The Publicity Secretary of Social Democratic Party in Oyo state Alhaji Akeem Azeez has urged Oyo state government and OYSIEC commissioner to be real, consistent and democratic in the local government election slated for February 11, 2017 .
He made this known in his reaction to the announcement made by Senator Ajimobi appointed OYSIEC commissioner, Mr Ajeigbe who announced the date. He said that Oyo State Government has failed to fulfil her promises to conduct local government election in the state in the first quarter of this year and later by September this year.
He opined that this is last opportunity for APC led Government in the state to redeem itself by not only conducting the election on the announced date but also ensure it is free and fair.
He described all Local government elections conducted so far by the states appointed electoral commissions in Nigeria as charade that were taken to far which negates basic democratic norms and principle. ” is it not curious and suspect that rulling parties are declared winners in all local government areas of the various state affected”
Alhaji Akeem Azeez urge members of the public to be vigilant during and after the election and the SDP will participate in the forthcoming election in Oyo state.
