Dakuku Peterside Buys Army Uniforms, Guns, For Thugs’, Alleged Rivers PDP
By Wale Abydeen/Editor/
With the clock ticking away to Saturday Governorship and State Assembly polls, politicians and other stakeholders are making last-minute preparations to ensure that the election pendulum would tilt towards their favour.
The ruling PDP in Rivers has alarmed that It has discovered that the All Progressives Congress (APC) who are not on the ballot for the weekend’s all-important elections in Rivers State, has perfected clandestine moves to play the spoiler and truncate the electoral process in the State.
The Rivers PDP in a statement made available to SECURITY MONITOR reveals that Rivers APC Chieftain and Director-General of Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), Adol Dakuku-Peterside and Nigeria’s Ambassador to Netherlands, Orji Ngofa are hell-bent on ensuring that elections are disrupted in the entire Rivers South-East Senatorial district.
“The unwholesome plot, according to sources showed that Dakuku-Peterside has procured guns and army uniforms and would lead the thugs in military uniform to terrorize Andoni, Opobo/Nkoro, Oyigbo and Ogoni LGAs on Election Day; while his co-party man, Ambassador Ngofa would attempt to make real his boast of using soldiers to arrest and intimidate innocent people in Eleme during the polls”.
According to the statement “whether these evil plots by the APC would succeed remains to be seen. However, if recent assurances by security agencies and the nation’s electoral umpire, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) that they would do everything possible to ensure smooth conduct of the elections, then the electorate in the Rivers South-East Senatorial District would have no cause to be afraid”.
