Okowa, PDP Actions Aimed At Demoralising Ogboru’s Supporters – Delta APC

The Delta State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC has accused the state government and the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP of staging intimidatory actions and propaganda aimed at demoralizing its supporters especially in the fortress of its governorship candidate Chief Great Ogboru in Abraka.

The APC has also dismissed as frivolous allegations that it was responsible for the recent increase in violence in sections of the state as it alleged deliberate acts of provocation directed at the fortress of its governorship candidate,

The APC in refuting the allegations made by the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, PDP said that on the contrary that the PDP has been orchestrating several acts of violence to intimidate APC supporters in the state.

A statement signed by the APC state publicity secretary, Barr. Ogheneluemu Imonina articulated what it claimed as the actions of the PDP and the state administration to undermine the peace in the state.

Rebuffing the allegation by the PDP that the APC was responsible for the recent violence in Effurun and Abraka in Uvwie and Ethiope East Local Government Areas respectively, the APC said:

“We make bold to state that the allegation by PDP is a spurious, unfounded and foolish attempt to use dirty propaganda to cover PDP’s deliberate acts of insecurity borne out of its fear of the unstoppable electoral defeat that APC is set to inflict on it (PDP). 

“For the avoidance of doubt, the information available in the public domain is that a young man popularly called ‘Napoleon’, who was a staunch supporter of Hon. Evelyn Oboro, (PDP’s Senatorial candidate in Delta Central) a House of Representatives member, recently expressed his desire to leave the sinking Delta PDP and join the APC.

“It’s reasonable to believe that the popular youth leader sees the handwriting on the wall that PDP has no future at all in Delta. It is believed that out of fear that PDP’s loss is becoming clearer by the day, PDP instigated some youths in Uvwie to declare the said Napoleon a personal non-granta, and started breaching the peace of Effurun. The result is what is now manifesting in Effurun. Typical PDP’s way.”

“We also know that some elements in PDP have been labouring to frame up our members on the crisis they instigated. We are watching them closely.”
