PDP uncovers alleged plan by APC to rig elections in Kaduna
A statement from the state Publicity Secretary of the party, Abraham Alberah Catoh, said that the ruling party intended to invite President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday to come and mobilize the voters for him since it lacks the clout amongst the people.“Reach out to the leadership of the Eze Ndigbo and the Ohaneze Ndigbo to discourage them from turning out enmasse on election day.
The statement further alleged that governor Nasir El-Rufai had encouraged the Ad-hoc Staff to stuff ballots and cancel units for over voting in PDP strongholds. “The APC has equally made arrangements to massively buy votes, directly from voters on elections day, and are deploying huge resources for that purpose,” the statement alleged.
“The report went further to imply that the gubernatorial candidate and the state leadership of the party are lacking in sincere engagement towards consultative and genuine reconciliation. “He has since inception of the party being a beneficiary, who had served in various capacities ranging from being a Special Adviser to Hon Nenadi Esther Usman former Minister of finance under the Obasanjo administration, a Commissioner of Works and Transport, commissioner overseeing the Ministry of Health and Commissioner for Culture and tourism. He was also the Director General of NEMA for more than six years under the auspices of our great party.
“Nevertheless, he turned around to blame the party for his defeat which is rather unfortunate. It is instructive to state, that of all the nine gubernatorial aspirants who contested with him at the primaries, he appears to be the only person who has complained of lack of internal democracy. The party cannot recall where its candidates were chosen either by fiat, impunity or imposition.
