The Deputy Governor of Oyo State, Bayo Lawal, has said the era of snatching of election material to blatantly rig candidates to victory is over with the provisions in the amended Electoral Act.

“The Act of 2022 was used in the last election in Osun State and even before INEC declared results, we all knew what was coming out. INEC was only giving imprimatur of authority by declaring results.

“Gone are the days of ballot box snatching, which is quite significant. Sanity is being introduced now, because parties must work hard to make sure their candidates win the election as there is no magic. As you get accredited, you vote and your votes will count and that is the hallmark of electoral transparency.

The Vice Chairman, Senate Committee on Electoral Matters, Senator Mustapha, said that the purpose of visit was to sensitise the Oyo State people on the Electoral Act 2022.
