…Group warns against militarisation, urges INEC to ensure credible election By Dayo Johnson, Osogbo OSOGBO — The National Association of Seadogs, also known as Pyrates Confraternity, has urged President Bola Tinubu to resist any attempt to deploy federal power to influence Saturday’s Osun State governorship election in favour of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
In a statement titled, “The Votes Must Count in Osun Governorship Election,” and signed by the NAS Capoon, Dr Charles Meribole, the group urged Tinubu, as President and Commander-in-Chief, to act as a statesman by ensuring that security agencies remain neutral and protect voters.
It also warned against the militarisation of the state during the election, saying excessive deployment of security personnel could intimidate voters and discourage them from exercising their franchise.
