Lagos State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), today raised the alarm that the All Progressives Congress (APC) is planning to implicate it in Saturday’s Governorship and House of Assembly elections in the state.The party in a statement signed by the Lagos State publicity secretary, Taofik Gani, maintained that the APC had concluded plans to use printed PDP symbols to snatch ballot boxes to disrupt the Saturday’s election.
The statement reads, "The meeting which had two leaders from each Local Council Development Area in Lagos and some known thugs held in a popular hotel and ended at exactly 3:45pm today (Friday). It was presided over by the chairman of APC.
"The meeting also discussed the possibilities of compromising the Independent National Electoral Commission to shift elections in some identified areas to Sunday in the belief that the non-indigenes, who are mostly christains, will go to church and not come out to vote.
"It is our appeal to our fans to remain resolute and to make sacrifices to make their choice count."
