The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Edo State has alleged that the state governor, Adams Oshiomole and the All Progressives Congress, APC, are plotting to rig the September 10 governorship election.
The party made the allegation at a campaign rally in favour of its candidate in the coming governorship election, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, in Uzebba, Owan West Local Government Area of the state.
Chairman of the party in the state, Dan Orbih while addressing supporters warned that any attempt to subvert the election will be resisted.
“President Buhari has never intervened in any election before now, so we hope Edo State will not be an exception. Nobody can use INEC, police, army or EFCC to rig the PDP out.
“I want to tell Oshiomhole that Edo people are prepared to behave the way the civilian population in Turkey behaved when the soldiers marched against them. We will resist any attempt to subvert the will of the Edo people; we stand on a very solid ground knowing fully well that Oshiomhole has failed Edo people.”
