As Nigerians come out today to exercise their civic responsibilities in the governorship and house assembly elections across the country, voters’ apathy has marred the exercise in Osun State.

He, however, adduced the low turn-out to the fact that governorship election was not holding in the state, having held gubernatorial election earlier in September.
