Salaam said the development could affect the ability of the party’s agents to properly monitor the counting and collation of votes at polling units.

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) governorship candidate in Osun, Dr Najeem Salaam, has raised concerns over the alleged denial of tags to the party’s polling agents across 10 local government areas of the state.

Salaam said the development could affect the ability of the party’s agents to properly monitor the counting and collation of votes at polling units.

The ADC candidate spoke to journalists on Saturday while assessing the conduct of the election, saying the party had uploaded the names of its agents on the Independent National Electoral Commission platform but was surprised that some were not issued identification tags.

“The report of my agent not being recognised in most of the wards across the state is worrisome and disturbing,” Salaam said.
