Wale Alabi, Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun, on Regional Integration, on Saturday stated that the All Progressives Congress (APC) does not engage in vote buying.
Alabi spoke at the inauguration of a campaign group set up to canvass votes for the APC ahead of the September 22 governorship election.
“If anybody is having or nurturing or wanting to embrace the system of ‘see and buy’, that will not be APC”, NAN quoted him as saying.
“Some other political parties are sleeping in their houses because they have the mindset that on the Election Day, they will just bring out money and buy votes.
“The APC, in spite of the fact that we have done a lot for the people of Osun, we are still not relenting on our efforts, as we are going out, talking to people, canvassing and begging them to let the development brought about by the APC government continue.
“We don’t believe in ‘see and buy’ and will never be part of it because vote buying has never been our way of handling things.
“The APC government has brought infrastructure and human development to the state and has given a lot to the people, so we think this is the right time for us to ask them to continue with the party”.
