Posters: Osun PDP orders compliance with INEC’s
guidelines
The PDP in Osun has
directed its supporters to immediately remove campaign posters from the streets
in compliance with the governorship election time table released by INEC.
The Director of Media Strategy and
Publicity of the party, Mr Diran Odeyemi, gave the directive in an
interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday in Osogbo.
NAN recalls that Prof. Attahiru
Jega, the Chairman of INEC had on Thursday at a stakeholders forum
in Osogbo said campaign before the stipulated date was illegal.
INEC had also fixed May 11 for
the commencement of gubernatorial campaign by all political parties in the
state.
Odeyemi alleged that most of the
campaign posters and bill boards belonged to the ruling All
Progressives Congress (APC).
“The few which carried the name of
our party was the handiwork of our supporters and we have now directed them to
start removing them,’’ he said.
But Mr Kunle Oyatomi, APC Director
of Publicity, Research and Strategy in Osun, said, “the PDP should go
ahead and remove its campaign posters as whoever wants to come to equity must
come with clean hands.’’ (NAN)
