APC, PDP trade tackles over recruitment of thugs, cultists vanguardnews
The Edo State chapters of the All Progressives Congress, APC, and Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, were at each other’s jugular, yesterday, over Governor Godwin Obaseki’s alleged recruitment of thugs and cultists for the September 19 poll.
However, Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Chris Nehikhare, said in its desperation the APC was trying to bully the good people of the state because “it is common knowledge that the APC is the party that is populated by known thugs and brigands in the many factions that exist within it.” “The people raised the first alarm months ago when the outgoing Governor began to dole out SA and SSA appointments in numbers never seen before. Independent verifications and revelations from the divided party that the Governor joined where majority of members are still smarting from his illegal imposition, have revealed that the most recent appointments which were furtively handed out, were given to cultists of notorious history and origin.
