Senator Adams Oshiomhole, representing Edo North Senatorial District, has dismissed claims that the All Progressives Congress (APC) engages in vote buying.

The former Edo State governor addressed the press after casting his vote at Iyamho, Ward 10 Unit 01 in Estako West Local Government Area of Edo State, stating that the allegation made by opposition parties is laughable.

Oshiomhole stated, “It is laughable when I hear this kind of allegation. Did you see anywhere they are sharing money?

“People turned out in large numbers to vote for us because they wanted good government. During our campaign, people came out to see me not because I wanted to give them something but because of what I have done for them while I was in office as the governor.”

He continued, “All structures that I have put in place 12, 13 years ago are still there but the ones put up by the present administration, in one year, they are washed off.

“So our people have seen the difference. Some people do tell me that since I left the government, they haven’t seen the real presence of government in their communities.”
