LAGOS, Nigeria – Former Head of State, Gen Ibrahim Babangida has condemned the Independent National Electoral Commission(INEC), describing the attitude of the electoral body in the Osun governorship election as nothing but a national embarrassment.




IBB’s condemnation is coming even as President Muhammadu Buhari has congratulated candidate of the All Progressive Congress(APC) for emerging victorious during the rerun.

“I congratulate the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Governor-Elect of Osun State, Adegboyega Isiaka Oyetola. Thank you Osun State for supporting our good governance agenda by re-electing the APC. We will continue to work for you, and for the entire country”, Buhari said in a statement.

But in stark contrast, IBB said what worries him about the INEC is not what they did at OsunRerun but what INEC will do during the 2019 general election.

Ibrahim B. Babangida “My worries on INEC is not only what they did in the #OsunReRun, it’s about what they will do in the 2019 general election. I am not really disappointed, it’s just a national embarrassment”, the former head of state said.

Also speaking, Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Ayodele Fayose said it was obvious even to the blind that the Osun election as was the case in Ekiti was a contest between the PDP and security agencies supervised by a compromised INEC.

“It was obvious even to the blind that the Osun election, as was the case with Ekiti, was a contest between the PDP and the security agencies supervised by a compromised INEC”, Fayose said.
