Describes act as Savage Custom, Barbaric, Outdated, Acursed, Rejected, Degrading, Humiliating, Unspeakable, Redundant and Denounced means
The All Progressive Congress (APC) in Ondo State has condemned in strong terms the attempt by the opposition party (ies) to win cheap votes by resorting to fetish practices.
Reacting to a viral video that was released into the public space of a herbalist laying curses on voters in order to instil fear in them, the Spokesperson for Ondo APC Governorship Campaign Council, Hon. Barr. Banji Okunomo (BBO) said it is unthinkable that in the 21st century, a political party or parties will resort to such level of crudity and barbarism in a bid to win the election.
BBO who said there is a remarkable distinction between darkness and light further noted that Ondo State people are in the realm of light.
“Light and darkness cannot meet. Those behind this obnoxious act are desperate for votes. Rather than show us their capacity in terms of what they have in stock, they have resorted to fetish means to get to power”, he said.
Okunomo stated that Lucky Aiyedatiwa is a candidate chosen by God for the people of Ondo State at this time.
“No power of darkness can subdue the power of God. The most civil way to go about this process of electioneering campaign is to demonstrate or showcase strength in what one can do differently from the status quo in order to endear the support of the people”.
“I expect to see lofty programs of actions and ability to deliver on the promises not by recursing to savage custom, barbaric, outdated, acursed, rejected, degrading, humiliating, unspeakable, redundant and denounced means to get to power”, he further stressed.
He thus enjoins the people of the state to ignore the video stressing further that politics should not degenerate to the level where people resort to fetish devices in their quest for power.
