The Osun State House of Assembly has said the transfer of the state Resident Electoral Commissioner of the Independent National Electoral Commission, Dr Mutiu Agboke to Ondo State was a political plot by some people.
The assembly equally said it has information that further deployments of interested people are being planned ahead of the August 15 gubernatorial election.
The assembly, in a statement on Thursday, queried Agboke’s deployment, noting that such action was not done in Ekiti State, whose election precedes Osun.
“We are particularly concerned by a deliberate pattern of actions aimed at influencing the electoral process in Osun State.
“Let it be clearly stated that no amount of administrative changes or deployments of interested officials will override the will of the people of Osun State.
“These calculated efforts, no matter how structured, cannot alter the resolve of our people. The people of Osun State are politically conscious, vigilant, and determined to ensure that their votes count and reflect their true choice,” the statement noted.
