Speaking to TVC in a live interview at polling unit 003, Ward 9, Ajayi alleged that unknown individuals from the opposition party were monitoring and filming voters as they cast their ballots.\n\nAccusing the opposition of attempting to manipulate the voting process, Ajayi emphasized that such actions prevent voters from casting their votes for their preferred candidates. He urged security agencies to intervene and ensure a free and fair election, stating, \"My name is Ajayi Ayodele. I’m a party agent for the Accord Party. Right here now, the only issue and observation that I’m raising is the issue of other parties looking at the vote of each voter in the box.\"\n\nAjayi lamented the presence of non-party agents who were tasked to stay on the sidelines but were instead seen videoing and picturing the voters' choices. \"One of them is videoing, picturing whatever people are voting. I don’t know why that is going on,\" he remarked.\n\nThe incident, which has been documented in a video available at the link provided, has drawn attention to the need for transparency and integrity in the electoral process.",
