Oyo APC raises alarm over impersonation to cause mayhem
The All Progressives Congress, Oyo State Chapter has raised an alarm over the impersonation plan of the opposition parties in the state to implicate APC by unleashing mayhem on innocent people.
The party said that it was privy to the perfected plan of opposition members masquerading as APC members with the branded apparels of the APC with pictures of President Buhari, Vice President Osinbajo, Governor Abiola Ajimobi, Chief Adebayo Adelabu, Its gubernatorial candidate and Alhaji Ejiogbe, the Oyo State Chairman of National Union of Road and Transport Workers (NURTW) to unleash mayhem on innocent people In order to discredit the party and destroy the existing peace in the state.
The Party’s Spokesperson, Dr AbdulAzeez Olatunde alleged that the opposition elements have in their possession dangerous weapons, calling on the security agencies in the state to be vigilant and employ preventive efforts to counter the actions of these unscrupulous elements.
According to Dr Olatunde, “We are equally aware that they have sewn Police uniforms to be used to perfect their rigging plans having realized that their defeat at the poll is imminent.
“It is pertinent to also dispel the rumour that has been threading for days now. Oppositionparties are used to fabricating lies and engage in mudslinging. For some times now, they have insisted on blackmailing our party with the story that APC is giving the electorates Kuli Kuli and Garri to get their votes. We can state without any equivocation that it is the evil machination of the agents of darkness who want the mantle of leadership at all cost in the state.
“The agents of the oppositions came to our campaign grounds at Igbo-Ora in Ibarapa Central and Moniya in Akinyele LG area with the intention of assassinating our Governorship Candidate. Many of our supporters were wounded during these attacks.
“We also recall how they attacked and burnt five vehicles of our House of Representative Candidate for Oluyole Federal Constituency, Hon. Tolu Sadipe. These hoodlums also vandalized the office and home of our candidate for Ido/Ibarapa Federal Constituency, Professor Adeniyi Olowofela. These are some of their despicable acts and we call on security agencies to be vigilant as we do not want anyone to spill the blood of the innocent.
“We know the opposition will go all out to make sure that Saturday’s Election is rigged but we believe the commitment and dedication of the electorates will triumph. We urge the people to vote for APC as it is the only party that can guarantee the development of the country and brighter future for our children,” Dr Olatunde stressed.
