PDP to set up monitoring teams at polling centres in Osun

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)‎ has resolved to set up monitoring teams in all the polling centres ahead of the September 22 governorship election in Osun State.

The party in a statement yesterday by its National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan said the move became necessary to stop the ‎All Progressives Congress (APC) from "rigging" the election.

"The PDP has resolved to set up monitoring teams in all polling centres and we will end all attempts by the APC to buy votes or snatch ballot boxes as they did in Ekiti and the just concluded bye-elections.

"While the PDP remains law-abiding and will never engage in rigging, it will, with all efficiency, dismantle the APC rigging machine and ensure a free and fair election using all means available to members as free citizens of Nigeria.

"This nation belongs to all of us and nobody, no matter how highly placed, must arrogate himself the power to subjugate others, particularly at elections. Enough is enough," the party said.
