Rivers guber: PDP alleges fresh plot by APC to disrupt guber results collation

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Wednesday said it has uncovered fresh plots by the All Progressives Congress, APC, to disrupt ongoing final collation of the results of the Rivers State governorship election.

It also alleged that the plot was hatched following the maintenance of clear lead and victory by Governor Nyesom Wike.
PDP spokesman, Kola Ologbondiyan, said this in a statement in Abuja.

He added, “Our party has been informed that the APC has been mounting pressure on security agencies to withdraw their personnel from the collation center and open the way for the invasion of armed hoodlums, sponsored by the APC, to invade the center and disrupt the exercise.
“The PDP has full information of how the APC plots to scuttle the collation, render the process inconclusive and trigger a constitution crisis in the state.
“The party however cautions that the public is already aware of the result of the election, that Governor Wike is the clear winner and that the people of Rivers state are now, more than ever before, all out to ensure that the process is concluded without further delay.
“The PDP therefore charges the Chairman of INEC, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, to immediately direct adequate security at the collation center and ensure that the process is concluded and Governor Wike declared winner according to the wishes of majority of the people of Rivers State.”
