Ogun SDP Secretary Resigns, Alleges Electoral Fraud During Primaries

The Ogun State Organising Secretary of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Mr Suleiman Abiodun-Alli has resigned his appointment and membership of the party.

Mr Abiodun-Alli, who alleged electoral fraud and rigging during the political party’s primaries said he won’t be a party to such sham and brazen rigging perpetrated during the electoral process as a man with conscience.

He said he has formally lodged a complaint reporting all the malpractices witnessed during the primaries and was shocked that the SDP did not do anything to address the issue raised.

According to him, “I made a formal report about the brazen rigging that characterized the party primaries in the Ogun Central senatorial district that I supervised.

Having waited for action to be taken on the report for a week and nothing seemed to have been done but instead, the SDP called the press and declared Otunba Rotimi Paseda- the beneficiary of that election fraud as the winner”.

Mr Abiodun-Alli said as a principled man with conscience, he won’t be part of such embarrassment and promotion of sham called election”.

He stated that if the purported winner had won in a free and fair primary election he would have stayed back and contribute his valuable knowledge and experience to the party.

Mr Abiodun-Alli however thanked the Chairman and other executive members for the opportunity afforded him to serve.
