The Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, has urged the Independent National Electoral Commission to ensure Nigerians’ votes count during the forthcoming polls.
The governor made the call when he received the letter notifying him of his election as the Silverbird Communication’s Man of the Year Award.
He added that the electoral umpire must ensure that votes counted and announced results reflect the true decision of Nigerians.
“This is an election season for us and we want to use this opportunity to also tell the electoral umpire, INEC, to allow people’s votes to count. And when people vote, the votes should be counted and let it also count towards the result they will announce,” he said.
