Kwara PDP's gov primaries: Police warn against violence

Date: 2014-11-29

The  Kwara State police command has revealed plans by some people to disrupt  the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) December 8 governorship primaries.

Speaking at  a meeting with the state  PDP  leaders and governorship aspirants in Ilorin, Kwara State capital, on Friday, the state police commissioner, Alhaji Salihu Garba, said the act would not be tolerated.

The police boss, who complained of proliferation of arms and ammunition and use of hoodlums by politicians in the state, said, “we as security agents shall ward off any aggression from any persons or quarters.

“Any aspirant linked to such unwholesome act or where  such  is traced to any aspirant,  he  will be dealt with according to existing laws”, he said.

The police commissioner also advised politicians to always foe the path of law and eschew all acts of violence, adding that there would be no sacred cow.

“Whatever you do should be within the ambit of the law. If you feel  you have been wronged, please go to the appropriate quarters and seek redress  rather than engage miscreants  in disrupting  the  peace  we have been enjoying in the state so far,” he said.

Meanwhile, all PDP governorship aspirants, except one,  have  raised fear over the primaries, alleging that  there was a doctored delegates’ list which the leadership of the party in the state planned to  use for the governorship primaries.

Senator S.A. Ajibola acting on behalf of the  aggrieved aspirants, handed over what he described as the  authentic delegates list to the commissioner of police, stating  that only one of the 13 governorship aspirants refused to append signature on a document put up by the forum of the PDP governorship aspirants  on their complaints.
