According to the report from the Sun, a Veteran journalist and immediate past Commissioner for Trade and Investment in Imo State and member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Media Committee, Simon Ebegbulem criticized the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)-led government in Edo State, accusing them of attempting to rig elections through the use of state power.

He alleged that the PDP is distributing fake police and army uniforms, as well as purchasing arms for their thugs to cause chaos and target members of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Ebegbulem mentioned an incident where an APC candidate and deputy governor were attacked at the airport, resulting in the death of Senator Okpebholo’s orderly.

He further claimed that Comrade Oshiomhole has been calling on the Inspector General of Police to address the issue of armed PDP thugs.

Ebegbulem argued that the PDP lacks a strong message and is instead relying on violent tactics to gain an advantage.

According to Simon Ebegbulem, “Are they not begging President Bola Tinubu for help? So, nobody should blackmail anyone with federal might. As we speak, the PDP-led government in Edo is trying to use state might to rig the election. They are sowing fake police and Army uniforms, purchasing arms to give to their thugs with a view to unleashing mayhem on APC members. They have a standing squad and you saw how our candidate and the deputy governor of the state, Philip Shaibu, were attacked at the airport. The orderly attached to Senator Okpebholo was shot dead. And that was why Comrade Oshiomhole has been raising the alarm and appealing to the Inspector General of Police to mop up the arms in possession of PDP thugs. PDP has no message, so they are relying on thugs.”….VïêwMôrê
