ABUJA — The Civil Society Legislative Advocacy Centre (CISLAC) has expressed concern over the growing threat of electoral violence, political intimidation and vote buying ahead of Saturday’s governorship election in Osun State.
CISLAC, in a statement by its Executive Director, Auwal Rafsanjani, said its concerns were based on independent monitoring, media reports and ongoing assessments of the electoral environment in the state.
The organisation said reports of killings, shootings, clashes, attacks on political gatherings, destruction of property and other forms of intimidation had emerged from different parts of Osun in recent months.
