The main opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has said that it has put measures in place to resist and dismantle all plots to rig or mar Saturday’s supplementary polls in some states in Nigeria.
A statement issued by its National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan on Thursday said Nigerians in the affected states were prepared to deal with thugs dressed in military uniforms seeking to aid the rigging of the March 23 supplementary elections.
The PDP said it was ready to confront and dismantle all rigging machinery in a bid to consolidate on its already established victory in the supplementary governorship elections.
“Our structure and followership in Sokoto, Kano, Adamawa, Plateau, Bauchi and Benue states have been fully rallied at all levels of polling and collation process to resist any attempt by anybody to manipulate,” the statement said.
While alleging that it has full information that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) was moving huge sums of money to bribe INEC officials, the PDP also claimed that the APC has been sending its agents to promise money to voters.
The PDP however claimed that all the schemes by the APC were already known, stressing that all its agents, members and supporters have been equipped to closely monitor all the electoral processes from votes collation to declaration of results.
