Imo Govt Accuses PDP Of Plotting To Truncate Democracy News
In a reaction to a press conference held by the PDP where it called on the federal government to declare a state of emergency in the state, should insecurity persist, the state government blamed the party for the security breaches because it is still bitter that it lost the 2019 governorship election in the state.
It said the suggestion by the PDP was a smokescreen to cover its real intention of destabilising the state with a view to stopping the 2023 election. “They sponsored and contrived insecurity in the state to make the state ungovernable, as they had vowed after they were lawfully booted out of office,” it further noted.
It said contrary to the claims of the PDP, the government has not been intimidating the opposition, pointing out that both the PDP presidential candidate and his Labour Party counterpart had campaigned in the state without any untoward incident.
