FILE: Governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress in Osun State, Najeem Salaam

The African Democratic Congress governorship candidate in Osun State, Najeem Salaam, has raised concerns over the alleged non-recognition of his party agents in several areas across the state during Saturday’s election.

Salaam, who arrived at his polling unit to vote at 10:39 a.m., said he received reports that ADC agents were not being recognised despite the party uploading their names ahead of the election.

He said the alleged non-recognition of party agents occurred in 10 local government areas, prompting him to report the matter to relevant authorities, who, he said, were looking into it.
