APC Using Blackmail To Coerce Postponement Of Election – PDP

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP has accused the All Progressives Congress, APC blackmailing critical election stakeholders to accede to its design to force the postponement of the February 25, 2023, presidential election.

The party’s National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, disclosed this at a press conference on Friday at the party’s headquarters in Abuja.

He said, “Our party had earlier alerted the nation of a well-oiled plot by the APC to orchestrate the security situation and promote circumstances to warrant the postponement of the 2023 general elections by INEC.

“The second is the attempt by the APC to mislead the public by falsely claiming that the PDP has no candidate for the Borno Central Senatorial District Election.

He disclosed that the intention of the APC was to use unfounded circumstances to derail the entire electoral process and impose an undemocratic situation on the country.

“The PDP hereby insists without equivocation that the February 25, 2023, presidential and National Assembly election dates are sacrosanct. The February 25, 2023 date is already locked.

Ologunagba added, “The APC and its presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, know that they have no chance at all in the coming elections, having been rejected by Nigerians because of their multiple failures, recklessness, humongous corruption, violence and continuing infliction of pains, hardship and life-discounting experiences on Nigerians in the last seven and half years.

“Nigerians are not ready to continue with a hopelessly corrupt, miserably incompetent, and viciously insensitive political party, the APC, which has mortgaged the future of our country with an accumulated N77trn debt as revealed by the Debt Management Office.

“This explains why the APC and its presidential candidate continue to promote and allegedly encourage violence in various parts of our country including attacking INEC facilities,” the PDP said in its charge that the APC was working for the postponement of the election.
