The candidate of the Social Democratic Party in the Osun State governorship election, Iyiola Omisore, has told a group he described as “faceless” to stop peddling unfounded allegations against him.
The position of the group was contained in a statement on Sunday
Generally, many including the candidates, their political parties, analysts and commentators seem to share the opinion that the first ballot was to some extent free, fair and fairly representative of the will of the people. It’s the second election, the rerun, that is controversial and which the opposition PDP rejected perhaps because it failed to win it and seal its initial lead. I shall return to all of that shortly.
