The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Uche Secondus has accused the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, of trying to destroy the Nigerian judiciary in their desperation to manipulate and thwart the will of Nigerians.
Secondus who led the PDP Presidential campaign train to Jos, Plateau state, on Saturday, told the mammoth crowd of the party supporters at the Jos Polo ground, that APC is afraid of an independent judiciary because of their agenda to rig the election.
The National Chairman, however, maintained that Nigerians were ready and determined to throw APC away and no amount of threats and harassment will deter the people from effecting the inevitable change.
“They want to kill Senator Dino, they want to kill the Senate President, they want to kill everybody but they will fail because God is with Nigerians.”
In a statement from his media office signed by Ike Abonyi , the National Chairman said to INEC and security agencies, “let me warn, you cannot rig this election, the will of the of the people must prevail whether you like it or not, that is democracy.”
He urged the people of Plateau to vote for PDP candidates in all the elections for lasting peace to come to plateau because the PDP governorship candidate Sen. Jerry Useni and Presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar have what it takes to provide enduring peace in the state.
“Atiku Presidency will not sleep until it provides jobs for the teeming youths of Nigeria and ensures harmonious living among the people.”
The Presidential Candidate in his own remarks to the jubilant crowd said PDP administration under his watch will ensure lasting peace in the state by proffering an all inclusive peace strategy.
Speaker after speaker that included the Senate President who is also the Director General of the Campaign Sen. Bukola Saraki, former Governors and leaders of the party in the state like Jonah Jang, conscious of the persistent security threats in the state assured the jubilant crowd that PDP coming into power will put an end to the insecurity situation in the state.
