THE Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ondo State has raised the alarm, alleging that All Pro­gressives Congress (APC ) is manipulating the ongoing Independent National Electoral Com­mission’s (INEC) voter registration exercise in the state by operating parallel centres different from the official designated points.

In a statement issued by the PDP’s Publicity Director in the state, Mr Ayo Fadaka, he said “APC is involved in a parallel voters regis­tration, just as INEC is executing same pro­gramme, essentially to capture our young adults in the voters register”

According to Fadaka, “ It is now common sight in all local governments across the state as APC agents with computers performing regis­tration in the same manner INEC does execute the same project “

Decrying the development, the PDP, insisted that “the APC has no business capturing the bio data of people at this material time”. He said the action of the APC is calculated towards com­promising future election results in Ondo State adding that the attitude is not only criminal but absolutely unpatriotic.

Suggesting that the APC must have devel­oped the courage to put up the illegal act be­cause of the confidence that it would use its influence at the federal level to ensure INEC accommodates its illegal register before the election. The PDP said it is important to also declare that “we got wind of this development earlier in the week and we wrote letters to the security agencies in the state on Monday June 24, informing them and equally requested that they be proactive and arrest this criminal devel­opment, but it seems our desire in this regard has been rejected.”
