APC accuses PDP of sponsoring thugs in its stronghold

The Director, Media and Publicity,  Silva/Igiri Campaign Organisation, Chief Nathan Egba, said the reasons the Acting Chairman, Peoples Democratic Party, Serena-Dokubo Spiff, had given for postponement  of rescheduled governorship election in Southern Ijaw Local Government Area of Bayelsa State, were baseless and lacking in substance.

He stated that it was a known fact that PDP had perpetrated all the violence in the Saturday governorship election in All Progressives Congress stronghold areas to scare its teeming supporters from voting in the election.

“Having not succeeded in their violent acts and  intimidation of  the electorate due to the increased presence of security at the rescheduled election in Southern Ijaw LGA, the PDP is now crying wolf.

“The Sylva/Igiri Campaign Organisation is confident that with the pronouncement made by Deputy Inspector General in charge of security in the state for the purpose of the election that there was adequate security to protect men and materials as well as the readiness of the Independent National Electoral Commission to go ahead with the election which has already gone half way there is no need for this call.

“It is extreme falsehood and total breach of electoral laws for the Chairman of PDP to claim that their party is leading in seven local government areas in the state when, INEC has not officially announced any result in the governorship election,” he said.

According to him, the APC believe that when the final results are released, they will roundly trounce the PDP in spite of their propaganda.
