International observers have condemned today’s supplementary gubernatorial election in Osun State as Nigerians await the announcement of the official results by the Independent National Electoral Commission.
In a joint press conference held in Osogbo, the Osun State capital tonight, the observers led by U.S. Consul General, Mr John Bray, stated: “The missions of the United States, the European Union and the United Kingdom observed voting at polling stations in Osun today. We witnessed what appeared to be incidences of interference and intimidation of voters and heard reports of harassment of party monitors, journalists and domestic observers.
“We are very concerned by this reports and we’ll be checking with stakeholders to determine the facts. We call on all stakeholders to remain calm.”
Meanwhile, reports reaching NewsmakersNG tonight say that a PDP youth leader in Ile-Ife, one Hon. Nurudeen, has been killed by some party thugs in the area.
Police authorities preferred not to talk about it when NewsmakersNG made enquiries on phone.
Sources told NewsmakersNG that the victim’s wife is an expectant mother.
