Osun State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP has described a statement ascribed to President Muhammadu Buhari to the effect that the All Progressive Congress (APC) won the last governorship election in the state by 'remote control' as a confirmation that the President was actively involved in the electoral robbery that took place on the 27th of September, 2018.
The PDP made this known in a Press Statement issued by its state Chairman Hon Soji Adagunodo.
The Party described the statement of the President which was made during a meeting with traditional rulers in Osun State and widely reported by the Media as a confession to electoral robbery and influence peddling which are the highest forms of corruption.
The Statement said it was shameful that the President of Africa's most important Nation could make such a reckless endorsement of criminality.
The PDP therefore calls on the Election petition tribunal currently sitting on the matter of the last governorship election in Osun State to take note of the confession made by President Buhari who is the leader of the APC.
The PDP also called on Civil society organisations and International observer groups to regard President Buharis confession on the Osun electoral robbery with seriousness in view of the various acts of desperation being exhibited by the APC Presidential candidate ahead of next month's general election.
