The All Progressives Congress in Delta State has described as untrue the allegation of the Peoples Democratic Party that it is planning to use ex-militants to disrupt Saturday’s elections in the state.
The APC Publicity Secretary in the state, Ogheneluemu Imonina in a statement issued on Wednesday in Asaba said that PDP’s allegation was ludicrous, spurious, laced with lies and should be disregarded.
“For the avoidance of doubt, APC is a responsible and responsive political party with human feelings and respect for the will of the common people.
“It is very clear to the discerning minds that the spurious and unfounded allegations of PDP in the said press release are a ruse meant to divert attention,” Imonina said.
Chief Funkekeme Solomon, Director General, Delta PDP Campaign Organisation, on Tuesday in Asaba, alleged that the APC had concluded plans to use ex-militants dressed in military uniforms to disrupt the elections across the state.
“We have been informed that these ex-militants when fully dressed as military personnel and armed with weapons, will now be deployed into PDP strongholds,” he alleged.
