The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has alleged that the All Progressives Congress (APC) is conniving with the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to disenfranchise its supporters who are the non-indigenes in Lagos State.
The party said the APC has engaged in burning and destroying of Permanent Voters’ Cards (PVCs) of non-indigenes in APC controlled states in connivance with INEC adding that the ploy is to stop them from voting in the forthcoming general elections.
Addressing newsmen this afternoon in Abuja, PDP national publicity secretary, Olisa Metuh said the APC wants to truncate the democratic process through violence, adding that PDP would not allow that to happen.
“In the APC controlled states especially Lagos, the non-indigenes are being denied the collection of their PVCs. In some places, the non-indigenes’ PVCs are even burnt and destroyed. We have records of it and we have asked the non-indigenes involved that if by Saturday, INEC continues with what they are doing in collaboration with APC, we will decide on the next line of action. We will not allow our primary constituencies that we have to be disenfranchised in this election,” the party said.
The party also dispelled claims by the Director General of the APC Presidential Campaign Organisation, Governor Rotimi Amaechi that the PDP has bribed pastors with N6 billion to support it in the forthcoming elections saying it is unfounded.
“We are not happy that APC is trying to bring religion directly into politics. Pastors are respected and for you to say that pastors have been bribed is one of the greatest cardinal sins. The DG should state his facts and name the pastors involved and tell us where that huge sum of money can came from.
“Attack on men of God is capable of bringing Muslims and Christians into a major fight that can derail democracy in this country. The person who issued this statement is a Christian and I advise him to go for confession because it is a sin against God,” the party said.

You’ve noticed I said I’m going slow down with regards
to eating junk, I’m not going to just stop eating completely,
no way. The more salt you take in, the greater your body
retains water to dilute it. So this leads to high calorie consumption, low
stamina, and overeating.
I like what you guys tend to be up too. Such clever work and coverage!
Keep up the awesome works guys I’ve included you guys to our blogroll.
