The National Youth Leader of the Restoration Party of Nigeria Comrade Bolaji Akinyode on Monday advised electorates in Osun especially youths, not to sell the destiny of the state by voting for money.
Comrade Akinyode stated this during a meeting with some youths forum in Osogbo, osun capital ahead of the September 22nd Governorship election in the state.
According to him, anyone who is willing to buy his way into any electoral office does not have the good of the people at heart but rather wants to serve his own interest.
“Money politics is the fundamental problem with Nigeria’s leadership; the mentality that if you must conduct election, you must spray money is what is killing us.
“That is why when people eventually get there, they will start stealing to recover their money; my appeal is don’t sell your votes; look for integrity.
“Always vote people you can question or trust to help develop Nigeria.
He said the party would begin sensitisation of the electorate in Osun to the ills inherent in the vote- for - cash syndrome , describing it as the worst thing to ever happen to any society .
Akinyode appealed to voters in the state to desist from exchanging their votes for material things like money in the forthcoming election.
