LG poll: APC youth leader, Aremu commends youths, Candidates, stakeholders for unity of purpose.
The recent local government election in Oyo State has sparked significant concern regarding allegations of corruption and irregularities. These allegations, represent a serious threat to the democratic process and the principles of fairness, transparency, and accountability.
Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of democracy, allowing citizens to choose their representatives and participate in shaping their communities. When elections are tainted by corruption, whether through vote manipulation, bribery, or other forms of misconduct, it undermines the trust of the electorate and weakens the democratic institutions meant to safeguard their rights.
The responsibility falls on electoral bodies like OYSIEC to ensure the integrity of the electoral process by conducting elections in a transparent and impartial manner. The Oysiec chairman should be ashamed of himself and its SAN should be investigated because he is shame to the bodies of Senior Advocate of Nigeria.
As a youth leader of All progressive congress in oyo state,I called for the cancellation of the election in totality because has no iota of transparency,credibility and integrity on the part of the government and Oysiec.
I hereby appreciate the great youth of our party for their resilient spirit before,during and after the show of shame performed by Oysiec.
Furthermore, it is crucial for government officials and institutions to prioritize electoral reforms aimed at strengthening the electoral process, enhancing transparency, and preventing corruption. This includes implementing robust mechanisms for monitoring, oversight, and accountability to ensure that elections are conducted with fairness and integrity, thereby upholding the democratic ideals that are essential for a vibrant and inclusive society.
Signed
Hon. Aremu John Oyetunji
