Election: PDP condemns heavy militarization, violence and incessant killings.

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has reportedly condemned the heavy militarization, violence and killing of innocent Nigerians by the desperate the All Progressive Congress, APC,  in the March 9, 2019 Governorship and state assembly elections. 

"The world watched with utter horror as Nigerian Army under the command of the Presidency, wound, arrest, shoot, terrorize opposition figures and provide cover for thugs to unleash violence, kill opposition members, cart away electoral materials, etc.


"This resort to bloodletting, violence and official high handedness by the APC in our electoral process has further confirmed that this administration has no regard for the lives of Nigerians and lawful processes, but only interested in seizing power by all means.

"The PDP notes that never in the history of our nation had a general election recorded such bloodletting, violence and manipulations as triggered in the 2019 elections by the Presidency and the APC.

"In Rivers, Akwa-Ibom, Cross River, Delta, Bayelsa, Kogi, Benue, Imo, Abia, Ebonyi, among others, soldiers brazenly aided APC thugs to unbridle violence, hijack electoral processes and write fictitious results for APC candidates.


"In Rivers, soldiers invaded the Independent National Electrical Commission, INEC, office in Bori, beat up and chased away PDP agents and assisted the APC in ballot stuffing & writing of results. The scenario was the same in Akwa-Ibom where security agents provided cover for APC thugs in their bid to hijack the process.

"In Imo state, APC thugs, accompanied by security agents disrupted polls in PDP strongholds and reportedly killed a PDP agent in Umudo/Umuwala area of Owerri.

"In Ebonyi state, the ruling party  thugs aided by security agents, burnt down @inecnigeria facility in the state, seeing that their party do not have any foothold in the state.

"In Ajaokuta, Kabba/Bunu, Olamaboro, Ijumu & several other LGAs of Kogi state, APC thugs, assisted by soldiers invaded polling units & carted away ballot materials, a development which sparked off restiveness in some areas and resulted in mass destruction of property in the area.


"In many other states, the All Progressive Congress in connivance with INEC orchestrated the deliberate diversion of electoral materials meant for certain areas to unknown destinations, resulting in the frustration of electoral processes in the affected area.

"We know that the APC plot to derail our hard- earned democracy and impose a fascist regime on our nation, but we are resolute in standing with Nigerians and all lovers of democracy to ensure that nobody, no matter how vicious, is allowed to vanquish our democracy."

Sad!!!! Corp member falls from moving commercial bus in Lagos.

At about 9:45pm on 15/04/19 a  corp member fell from a moving commercial bus (danfo) along LASU-ISHERI road Lagos.  He sustained severe head injury and was lying by the road side.  A few  eye witnessed at the scene of the incident assisted in driving him down to a nearby hospital at (Alimosho General hospital, Igando) where he was given first aid treatment. He was thereafter referred to LASUTH for further medical management that same night due to the nature of the injury he sustained. However, no one  has been unable to contact the relatives or friends. Mobile phone on him  can't be accessed (passworded) and has no means of identification on him.   We hope the young man recovers fast from the severe head injury sustained during the ugly incident. Anyone with useful information about the victim should please contact the relatives or the  Lagos State NYSC secretariat or call 09092377729.
