The Coalition of Registered Political Parties in Ogun State says it is rejecting in its entirety the March 18 governorship election in the state as declared by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC .

The convener of the coalition, Mr Olamiposi Oginni stated this at a news conference in Abeokuta, the Ogun State Capital.

Mr Oginni explained that the declaration of Governor Dapo Abiodun as the winner of the Ogun State Governorship Election by INEC was also rejected.

The group alleged that the March 18, 2023 Election in Ogun State was massively rigged with lots of irregularities ranging from snatching of ballot boxes in over 100 polling units, suppression of voters with thugs under the cover of security agencies, ballot snuffing and other illegalities.

The coalition, therefore, appealed to all relevant agencies including INEC to do the needful in the interest of good governance and development of democracy.

Candidates of the New Nigeria People’s Party, NNPP, in Ogun State in the forthcoming elections have signed an undertaking with the party to commit themselves to the fulfilment of their campaign promises when elected.

The undertaking was signed at the party’s secretariat in Abeokuta, the Ogun State Capital.

The Party’s Ogun State Chairman, Mr Olamiposi Oginni while speaking at the exercise explained that the non-fulfilment of promises by many politicians in the past prompted the signing of the documents.

He hinted that the undertaking would serve as evidence to which the people of Ogun State could hold the party and its candidates accountable when they fail to fulfil their promises.

The governorship candidate of the party, Mr Ajadi Oguntoyinbo said no political party in the history of the country has ever done what the party had done by subjecting its candidates to the signing of an undertaking to uphold their promises.

Mr Oguntoyinbo while speaking called on other political parties to emulate the party for the country to progress.
