Gun shots, thuggery mar Kwara Assembly re-run poll - ACN

Date: 2012-06-30

Kwara ACN rejects the conduct of the PDP and deemed whatever outcome of the election as unacceptable.

The exercise was marred by wholesale violence and thuggery by PDP chieftains and thugs who toured the polling units to intimidate and scare off voters with gun shots and violent attacks on ACN chieftains and agents who challenged their lawlessness. Among them are Mashood Mustapha, a House of Representative member, a state commisioner, Sulu, Alh Saka Onimago, Alhaja Segi Momo, Alhaji Sule Maja.

From the beginning to the time of issuing this release, the exercise was riddled with mindless disregard for law and order. It was chaotic. There were gun shots at Ile Onimago, Mount Carmel, Ita Kudimo, Ode Isowo, Pakata Primary School, Ode Alfa Iwo, Ode Balogun Alanamu, Ile Manma, Ikhwanu Primary School which also doubles as the collation centre for Alanamu ward, Ode Isowo where, apart from the usual beating of our agents, our party elder Alhaji Koobe was beaten to a pulp. These are only a few of the numerous places where PDP brazenly subdued the law with impunity.

This leaves us wondering what exactly is wrong with the PDP. The media would recall that we issued a statement on Thursday predicting this violence and disrespect for popular wish. It is shameful that a party/government that routinely entertains the world about its 'outstanding achievements' cannot allow the voters to reward its laudable efforts with votes and instead resort to violence to keep its goons in power against popular wish. And despite our earlier warnings we are disappointed that the security agencies allowed these lawlessness to happen.

This is a pointer to what to expect in 2015 as the PDP is unprepared for any credible elections.

Signed: ACN candidate for the election
