Speaking on the allegation of vote-buying during the last Saturday’s Ekiti governorship election, the governor-elect said no evidence to justify such an allegation.

“We won the election fair and square and it was an election that we fought on issues and not on the basis of any vote-buying. So, whoever has any evidence of that should present it to an independently verifiable audience,’’ he said.
