PDP Accuses APC of Using N20bn State Funds for Election Campaign

 

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ondo State has alleged that Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa misappropriated N20 billion from state funds to finance his campaign for the recent governorship election. 

Dr. Eddy Olafeso, the PDP Campaign Council's Director General, claimed that this money was used for vote-buying, with reports of voters being offered N10,000 each. 

The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) swiftly denied these allegations, describing them as false and baseless, asserting that their campaign financing was transparent and adhered to electoral regulations. 

The controversy highlights ongoing tensions following the election results, where Aiyedatiwa was declared the winner.
