2023 Election: Labour Party bought votes with dollars, Atiku shared money – Presidential candidate opens up
The presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party, Adebayo Adewole, has said that both the Labour Party (LP), the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the All Progressives Congress (APC) all cheated during the last presidential and National Assembly election.
Adewole stressed that the three leading parties at the Saturday’s poll all bought votes to influence the outcome of the election.
Speaking on Arise Television’s The Morning Show on Friday, Adewole accused the Labour Party of sharing dollars to the electorate in his own polling unit in Ondo State during the polls.
He said: “APC used recharge cards to cheat, the Labour Party brought dollars and PDP shared money. Why will I not complain? Atiku Abubakar cheated me of my vote in Katsina and Adamawa State, he was buying votes with N200. What I’m saying is that the election is flawed. It’s not an honest process.”
“A victim cannot be blaming other victims. I never said nothing is wrong with the election. Everything is wrong with the election. Anyone who wants to go and challenge the election should do so because everything is wrong with the election.”
“But it’s not only what happened that day that was wrong with the election. People (political parties] cheated. Many of those who are complaining now cheated in the election. In the polling unit where I voted, Labour Party cheated, PDP cheated and the APC cheated more because vote buying is cheating,” he added.
