Osun Decides: Over 100 Alleged ‘Imported’ Voters Arrested with New PVCs

Over 100 persons allegedly brought into Osun State to participate in Saturday’s governorship election have been arrested.

The suspected voters, who were reportedly in possession of newly issued Permanent Voter Cards, PVCs, were allegedly brought into the state by a member of the Accord Party ahead of the election.

The individuals were said to have been camped at the residence of one Hon. Abiola Ibrahim before their arrest.

The development comes amid heightened political activities and security concerns across Osun State as voters head to the polling units to elect the next governor.

Details surrounding the arrests, including the identities of those arrested and the circumstances under which they were allegedly brought into the state, were not immediately clear as of the time of filing this report.

Security agencies are expected to investigate the incident and determine whether the suspects violated any electoral laws.
