Go To Polling Booths With Charms - Governor Aregbesola Urges Voters
Category: Nigerian National News
Osun State Governor, Mr. Rauf Aregbesola, has tasked
residents of the state to go to the polling booths on August 9, 2014 armed with
charms and verses from the Quran and Bible, Punch reports.
The governor, who said this in Ikire on Tuesday during his
campaign in the town, however, did not say what voters would use the charms and
prayer verses for.
Speaking in Yoruba language, Aregbesola urged the people of
the state to go out and cast their ballots and stay back until the result was
announced to avoid rigging.
He described the Peoples Democratic Party as an assemblage
of men who are promiscuous for asking young women to “dress to kill” while
going to cast their ballots during the governorship poll.
The governor said, “Make sure you go to cast your ballots
with everything. I am not saying you should go there with guns but the law does
not frown against charms, verses from the Quran and psalms of the Bible.
“Cast your votes for APC and stay back. Wait for the
sorting, counting and announcement of result. Make sure you are there to
witness how agents would sign the election results. Stay back, don’t hurry home
to avoid manipulation.”
Aregbesola promised that he would performed more that what
he is doing now if he is voted back into office.
