The Peoples Democratic Party has rejected the Independent National Electoral Commission's results declaring Afolabi Afuape of the All Progressives Congress as the winner of Saturday's House of Representatives election in Abeokuta South Federal Constituency.

In a statement issued on Sunday evening, the PDP's local government agent for the constituency, Lukmon Ogunbayo, said the results "were fraught with many irregularities, inflated figures, manipulations, fraud, over-voting and vote buying, among other illegalities."

According to Ogunbayo, who carefully examined the results, the announced results do not conform to or reflect the votes and wishes of the people of Abeokuta South local government.

According to him, it was discovered that in some cases, the total number of valid votes exceeded the number of accredited voters, an anomaly that can not be overlooked.

He further said, “There is a case where BVAS could not capture or work properly and the people were allowed to vote in ward 10, unit 6. The incidence of vote buying also pervaded the entire process. Indeed, this is not a true reflection of the votes and wishes of the people.”

Ogunbayo added that the House of Representatives results are rejected while awaiting further directives from the party.

INEC had announced Afolabi Afuape of the APC as the winner having polled a total of 19,899, while his closest rival Toyin Amuzu of the PDP was said to have polled 13,663.
