The Independent National Electoral Commission [INEC] on Tuesday made some clarifications on the issue relating to the conduct of the Osun governorship election [#OsunDecides2018], especially in Ayedaade LGA.
INEC, in a statement by the state Resident Electoral Commission [REC], Mr. Olusegun Agbaje, said an INEC official, one Mutiu Salawu, wrongly accused of tearing up election result pasted at St. Patrick’s Grammar School in Gbongan.
