PDP alerts of plot by APC to frame Atiku

THE Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organisation (PPCO) has alerted on an alleged plot by the All Progressives Congress (APC) to frame the PDP Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, and heap allegations of gun running on him.

The party, in a statement issued in Abuja on Wednesday night by Kola Ologbondiyan, Director, Media & Publicity, PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation, said intelligence available to it shows that agents of the APC have already perfected plots to brand some vehicle with Atiku campaign colours, laden them with arms and ammunition and take them to Atiku’s home in Abuja and Adamawa, where conniving security agents will pounce on them to embarrass our candidate on trumped up charges of gun running.

The PPCO condemned the plot in totality and urged Nigerians to note that APC has become frenetic and increasingly vicious in its desperation to smear our candidate ahead of the 2019 Presidential election.

The party, therefore, called on all Nigerians to be at alert “and continue to be wary of the malicious activities of the APC and the Buhari Presidency, who, in the despondency of their imminent and inevitable defeat at the Presidential poll, have sold their souls to mischief.”

It affirmed that “Nigerians now know who to hold responsible should any harm befall Atiku Abubakar, who they have attained a consensus to vote in, as the next President of our country, come February 2019.”
