Saraki criticizes APC following the just concluded Kwara state by-election

The Senate President who recently decamped to the People's Democratic Party, PDP, from the ruling party has openly criticized the lawless action of the All Progressive Congress, APC, after the just concluded by-election in Kwara state.

Saraki said "The public should know that today's by-election in Kwara state was simply between PDP and the security agents in collaboration with the ruling party, APC. This was die to the heavy deployment of police, soldiers and other security agents who gathered to support APC and harass PDP leaders and supporters.

"This is the first time in Kwara State that election will be held under such charged, tensed and militarized conditions. We heard that Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC officials complaining about their own safety and other opposition party supporters were brazenly intimidated, which resulted in low turn out of voters.

"It is important to reiterate that ahead of the 2019 general elections, such an open displays of intimidation are sending wrong signals. Our democracy is being undermined with this misuse of our nation's security apparatus."

Saraki finally thanked the people of Ekiti, Oke Ero, Isin and Irepodun who came out to exercise their franchise, thereby defying the heavy intimidation and the stage laid by the security agents and thugs invited into the four Local Government Areas by the All Progressive Congress, APC.
