Osun Election: There must be no mysterious glitches – Atiku issues warning to INEC

The ADC presidential candidate described the Osun election as a test of what Nigerians should expect in the 2027 general elections, urging INEC to ensure a transparent and credible process.

He said, “And to INEC, I say this clearly: Osun is a test. There must be no mysterious glitches. No unexplained delays. No manipulation of the process.

“Election materials must arrive promptly. Accredited voters must be allowed to vote freely. Votes must be counted honestly, and results must be transmitted transparently and in accordance with the law.”

Atiku also urged President Bola Tinubu and his administration to “resist any attempt to use government institutions” to gain partisan advantage.

He further called on security agencies to protect voters rather than intimidate them, stressing that their role should be to secure the electoral process and not create an atmosphere of fear around polling units.
