4:24Now PlayingA member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Ismael Ahmed, said on Monday that the victory of the incumbent governor of Osun State, Rauf Aregbesola, was a fantastic time for democracy that every progressives across Nigeria interested in seeing that democracy grows should cherish.
Mr Ahmed, however attributed the victory to the fact that the political party prepared well, describing the huge deployment of security personnel as a tactic by the Federal Government to intimidate the electorates.
"It is a thing of concern that movements were restricted. There was over militarisation of the whole state, but I think that after the Ekiti experience people knew they have to stand up to their right.
"There was an attempt to intimidate voters, but the constant calling that we have had on people to make sure that they stay on the message and remain focused and remain inundated by the intimidation.
"Some of our national leaders were arrested and harassed on the eve of the election," he claimed, citing purported reports received by the party.
