The wife of Ondo State Governor, Mrs. Betty Akeredolu, has said that she was not injured at the polling centre.
This was contrary to a viral video showing how she was injured when thugs invaded the place.
Responding to the video, the Ondo first lady said that it was the handwork of the enemies of democracy.
Mrs. Akeredolu, who spoke at their Owo residence, insisted that the video was meant to damage the voting exercise, distort information and put it in a bad light.
While describing the sponsors of the video as insane, Mrs. Akeredolu expressed optimism that her husband would be re-elected.
Her words:
“People are exercising their franchise. The good thing is that people are voting in a peaceful manner. If we continue like that in all other polling units we dont have anything to fear about violence.
“We encourage people to vote and not fight. I urge people to vote in a peaceful manner so that our voices will be held.
“I am here in the ambience of my country home and somebody is there doctoring video that I was injured.
“Were you the one that injured me? Such desperation will not do any good to them.
“The detractors want to damage the exercise, to distort information and put one on a bad light. It is all false. We will emerge victorious.”
