Interior Minister, Rauf Aregbesola, has identified some shortcomings of the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship primary election in Osun State.
The former Osun State governor said reports are being collected from members of his factions across the state.
After a careful study of the reports, the minister said legal action would be considered.
Aregbesola said this in a statement by his media adviser, Sola Fasure, titled, ‘Hold your heads high’.
Among the shortcomings identified by the minister included vote-buying, absence of result sheets, absence of INEC officials, and disenfranchisement.
He, however, urged the party members to remain peaceful, assuring them that the credibility of the election would be challenged.
The had been tension over the fierce battle for the sole ticket of the party between the Governor of Osun State, Gboyega Oyetola, and a former Secretary to the State Government, Moshood Adeoti.
Adeoti, a former state chairman of the party, is the anointed candidate of the Minister of Interior, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola.
Oyetola was the chief of staff to Aregbesola when the latter served as governor of the state for eight years.
However, the relationship between the governor and the minister has deteriorated to the extent that they now belong to different camps of the party in the state.
Aregbesola had vowed that the incumbent would not be allowed to serve another term.
Also in the race is a former Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Lasun Yusuf.
Unofficial results from the election showed that Oyetola is leading.
