Residents in Iba Housing Estate, Ojo, Lagos Ward Allegedly Forced to Support APC Party to Access Polling Unit During Nigerian Presidential Election (Video)

During the ongoing presidential election in Nigeria, reports have emerged from the Iba Housing Estate, Ojo, Lagos Ward of alleged voter suppression tactics. According to eyewitnesses, residents are being prevented from accessing the polling unit unless they declare their support for the All Progressives Congress (APC) party.

Many residents have expressed their frustration with the situation, calling it an assault on their democratic rights. “It is unacceptable that people are being forced to declare their political affiliations in order to exercise their right to vote,” said one resident.

The Nigerian Electoral Commission has yet to release a statement on the incident, but many are calling on them to investigate the allegations and take swift action to ensure that all voters are able to cast their ballots without fear of reprisal or intimidation.

Voter suppression tactics are a serious concern in any democratic election, and it is essential that the Nigerian government takes steps to ensure that the election is free and fair. All eligible voters must be allowed to cast their ballots freely and without interference, regardless of their political affiliations.

As the presidential election continues to unfold, it is essential that all stakeholders work together to ensure that the process is transparent, accountable, and fair. The Nigerian people deserve nothing less than a free and fair election, and any attempts to subvert that process must be met with the full force of the law.
