Chief Olusegun Osoba, Former Governor of Ogun State, has narated how he was allegedly rigged out of office during the 2003 governorship election when he sought re-election.

According to him:  “The 2003 election, I have put it behind me many years ago. 2003 is bygone. Nobody expected that the election would go the way it went, but I knew it would go the way it went because the figures had already been prepared.”

He revealed some security had given him “the figure of the result that they were going to announce.”

He also narrated how some people took his “money to sleep in hotels and pocketed same,” saying, “in politics you must learn to engage in wasteful spending and you must learn to buy all kinds of lies.”

“I knew that the election was concluded, I was warned, the electoral officer from Cross River had told me after the Presidential election that, ‘Chief don’t contest the governorship, it is concluded’, but I said no.

“We shared N140million on the eve of the election and I knew it was a wasted money, but I shared it because if I didn’t share it, they would say if I had not given them the money, they would have won.”
