According to an INEC official in Yewa North representatives of the governor offered them N2 million to manipulate the results of Ohunbe ward.


The official said when they rejected the offer, the representative told them that they were joking with their lives and had no other option.

“We left the ballot papers for them to do what they wanted, I cannot lose my life over this election, I have a family that is waiting for me to return home,” said the INEC official who spoke to journalists on the condition anonymity.

At the collation center at NUD Oke Ijeun INEC officials were attacked by thugs who were wearing APM shirts. The attack took place at Ward 8 on Saturday evening.
