THE Ekiti State Police Command has distanced itself from allegations levelled against it by the All Progressives Congress, APC, that it is conspiring with some political parties to rig the election.
Speaking with us, its Police Public Relations Officer, Mr Victor Babayemi described the allegations as untrue and unfortunate.
Babayemi said “the report credited to the party is untrue. It is very unfortunate that this is coming from a party that has enjoyed the benefits of Police services in the state. We are not unmindful of the fact that the party is trying to make the police a scapegoat and that is a situation that we are not going to tolerate.”
Speaking further, he said “let me put it on record that we have been fair to all the parties in the state in the build up to the electioneering campaigns and it is unfortunate that politicians are not living up to expectations. Rather than the party blaming the police, they should look inward. We are not going to condone their recklessness but we are going to be fair to all parties as I have earlier stated.
