THE  Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, governorship candidate in Osun, Senator Ademola Adeleke, Tuesday, accused the police of conniving with the All Progressives Congress, APC, to stop him from retrieving his stolen mandate. Adeleke In a statement, Adeleke said there is a plot to harass and intimidate him in order to disrupt the commencement of his petition before the election tribunal.

Adeleke said the examination malpractice allegation is politically motivated. His words: “The police is in collusion with the APC in the plot to implicate me on trumped-up charges as a way of disrupting the commencement of our petitions before the Election Petition Tribunal. “Their plan was originally to arrest me before the election so that I won’t be able to effectively participate at the governorship election but the court order and interventions stopped the evil agenda.

The public is aware of the many intimidation and attacks I have been subjected to before, during and now after the election. We stand by the people and we will not surrender their mandate to anti-democratic forces.”
