@EletrickShark “INEC should not make the mistake of handing over Osun to APC the people have spoken they want APC out.”

@Samie_keny “APC and INEC are at it again. Elections inconclusive in what sense. They have given room for “Jagaban” and his allies to loot the rerun.”

@Philphiltin “So PDP wins Osun and INEC calls the result inconclusive… Our democracy is under sabotage.”
