The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has called on the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) to investigate alleged use of state resources for vote buying ahead of the 2026 governorship election.
The APC campaign council, in a statement by its Media Committee Chairman, Remi Omowaye, on Wednesday, accused the administration of Governor Ademola Adeleke of using public funds to influence voters.
Omowaye alleged that the state government had commenced a “widespread vote-buying scheme” by requesting residents to submit their bank account details to receive a N20,000 payment.
He claimed that the funds were being paid directly into the accounts of workers and residents, alleging that the move was aimed at gaining political advantage ahead of the election.
