Dakuku Peterside accuses PDP of Electoral Malpractice in Rivers state
The gubernatorial candidate of the All Progressives Congress in Rivers state, Dakuku Peterside, has accused the Peoples Democratic Party of perpetrating electoral fraud during the April 11 elections.
Dakuku also advised the PDP not to celebrate their victory, faulting claims by the party that media organisations, civil society groups and foreign observers were sponsored to report that the election was flawed.
He said: “Are they saying that the European Union, the Embassy of the United States in Nigeria and several well-meaning friends of Nigeria who witnessed the sham in Rivers were induced?
“You cannot cover the sun with one finger. Everybody who witnessed what happened in Rivers knew what happened. What about our party leaders and members that were murdered?
“The blood of these innocent Nigerians and the tears of their widows and orphans will surely speak. On our part, we are going to court to seek justice for the Rivers people.”
