lagos – Senator Musiliu Obanikoro has labeled Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate in Lagos state, Jimi Agbaje as dishonest for lying over the excess votes during the party’s governorship primary.
It would be recalled that Obanikoro described the whole governorship primary electoral exercise a sham after the total number of votes cast, 863, was higher than the total number of accredited delegates, 806.
Reacting to Agbaje’s bid to play down the ‘sham’ by their party, Obanikoro wrote on Twitter on Thursday: “Jimi Agbaje should not in desperation to defend Monday’s immoral and unethical show of shame, further tarnish his reputation.”
He then followed that with. “The claim by Agbaje that we were in agreement over the excess votes is dishonest and unbecoming of a man who wants to be Lagos governor.”
“For the records, there was never any agreement between me or any aspirant or anyone whosoever to accommodate any excess votes,” he tweeted.
“If at all there was any agreement, it was an agreement between Bode George and Jimi Agbaje to compromise the outcome of the primaries!”, he remarked.
