Attack On Makinde Won’t Stop Kogi People From Voting Wada – PDP

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) berates the All Progressives Congress (APC) for sending armed thugs to invade the venue of the meeting of its leaders, including Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde and the PDP candidate, Engr. Musa Wada, in Lokoja on Friday.

The party says that several hooded APC thugs, armed with automatic rifles and other dangerous weapons, invaded the venue of the meeting which had Governor Makinde, Engr. Wada, his running mate, Hon. Samuel Aro, the PDP National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, as well as
other party chieftains in attendance.

It took the resistance of the security personnel attached to Governor Makinde to save the situation, which would have turned calamitous, as
the people of Kogi who were around the venue were already poised for a stiff confrontation.

The PDP says the APC ought to have known by now that their reliance on thugs and violence cannot thrive, as the people are ready to defend
their state in this election.

The party therefore urges in the Inspector General of Police Mohammed Adamu to caution the APC as well as put every measure in place to check
the activities of APC’s thugs so as to ensure a hitch free, transparent and credible election on Saturday.

The PDP calls on the people of Kogi state to remain alert and resolute in their determination to assert their will despite the machinations
designed to undermine their spirit at the election.

It also states that Nigerians should hold the APC and Governor Yahaya Bello responsible should any harm whatsoever befall any PDP member
during the period of the election.
