The All Progressives Congress (APC) responding to the alarm raised, Friday, by the Peoples Democratic Party’ to the effect that it is plotting to rig the September 19 gubernatorial elections in Edo State, says the PDP is troubled by the wide acceptance it’s candidate is receiving and is therefore panicked.

 

“Sensing the widespread acceptance and support the good people of Edo State have given the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu in the lead up to the forthcoming governorship election, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is clearly panicked and has resorted to childish and comical conspiracies.

The APC stated that while it believed in one person, one vote, the PDP”s stock-in- trade is electoral malpractices and rigging.
“Procurement of result sheets, cloning of PVCs, stealing card readers, vote buying, voter intimidation and other election fraud is the PDP’s stock-in-trade. For us in the APC, it is one person, one vote.

“Our people-focused development records is visible to all and the good people of Edo state are poised to make the right and progressive choice, come September 19.

“We reiterate that our security services must do everything to stop the PDP’s plan to unleash violence, intimidate voters and buy votes during the election.

“Come September 19, votes will count and the will of the Edo electorate will prevail.
The short, sharp and quick response to the rather elaborate statement of the Peoples Democratic Party was signed on behalf of the party by Yekini Nabena, its Deputy National Publicity Secretary
