PDP, Insists On Dismantling APC Rigging Machine

By -
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) says there is no threat or smear campaign that will make it buckle on its resolve to contend with the All Progressives Congress (APC) and dismantle its rigging machinery in all future elections.

The PDP, in a statement by its national publicity secretary Kola Ologbondiyan noted that the APC had, in its statement on Wednesday, already admitted that it had been engaged in rigging of elections, sponsoring of violence, ballot snatching and announcement of fake results, for which it has become notorious.
The PDP said the APC, in its own statement, owned up to electoral contrivances and openly admitted that it rigged last Saturday’s national assembly by-election where results were altered in its favour, ballot boxes were snatched, and Nigerians were harassed, intimidated and even killed.
It said the PDP will show evidence of how the APC deployed thugs and used security forces to intimidate, arrest and detain PDP supporters; the cancellation and alteration of results where PDP won, allocation of fake results for the APC and outright declaration of concocted results to suit the whims of APC.
The PDP said it will not allow any election rigging play out again, especially in the forthcoming osun governorship election.
