Violent Clash at Ado-Ekiti Poll Over Vote-Buying Leaves One Injured

Friday’s voting in Ado-Ekiti turned violent when supporters of the APC and ADC confronted each other amid allegations of cash distribution. Eyewitnesses say the fight left one person wounded before security officers restored order. The APC dismissed the claims as baseless propaganda, while the ADC has urged INEC and security agencies to launch a full investigation. INEC officials confirmed the disturbance but reported that voting resumed shortly afterwards. Analysts warn that vote-buying remains a persistent threat to Nigeria’s elections, and the Ekiti Police Command has opened its own probe.
