Protest is currently rocking the Ondo state Electoral Commission ODIEC, following an allegation against a serving Commissioner in the state, for allegedly manipulating the local government election held on saturday.
A councillorship candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in the Saturday local government election in Ondo State, Olanrewaju Johnson Faloye made the allegation after ODIEC announced the result of the election.
Faloye had participated in the election held at unit 03 of Oba Ile in Akure North Local Council Area of the state.
Speaking to journalists, the SDP councillorship candidate accused the Commissioner of visiting the polling units in the town to hijack the ballot papers and other election materials.
Faloye said the Commissioner went to Araromi and Owode to snatched the election materials and disrupt the exercise due to the popularity of the SDP in the community.
He alleged that despite the resistance from the people, the Commissioner went ahead with thugs to thumbprint and sniffed the ballot papers in favor of the councillorship candidate of the APC.
