The Coalition of Democrats for Electoral Reforms (CODER) and Afenifere Renewal Group (ARG) have criticised leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for holding a reception in honour of Chief Olabode George, after his release from prison.
They said the red carpet treatment for the ex-convict may have conveyed a wrong impression to youths that crime pays.
The convener of CODER, Mr. Ayo Opadokun, and ARG chieftain Mr. Dipo Famakinwa said PDP leaders and government officials that attended the reception were insensitive to public opinion.
Opadokun said the event was a celebration of corruption by PDP.
