Arrest Plot: SDP Jittery Over Looming Defeat – Kogi APC

Kogi State chapter of ghe All Progressives Congress governorship campaign council has accused the Social Democratic Party (SDP) of raising alarms over an alleged plan by the ruling party to arrest its leaders to arrest its leaders ahead of the coming governorship section in the state.

In a statement signed yesterday by its spokesman/director of media and publicity, Kingsley Femi Fanwo, the APC said the SDP is only exhibiting fear of defeat and that no amount of falsehood will stop the state from holding a peaceful election.

He said, “Our attention has been drawn to a spurious allegation by the discredited merchant of falsehood in Kogi politics, the Social Democratic Party, to the effect that Governor Yahaya Bello is planning to arrest SDP leaders over frame-up charges of terrorism. This is another tempo of falsehood from the bottle-size overambitious group.

“Terrorism is a very serious national issue that shouldn’t be ordinarily trivialized by any group, no matter how confused. But the SDP would stop at nothing to push their noses in front as serious contenders when they know they stand no chance whatsoever in the forthcoming governorship election.

“While we will urge security agencies to invite the fiction authors for questioning and to tender empirical facts to support their claims, we wish to dismiss the allegation as another attention-seeking, unimaginatively concocted lie aimed at creating panic and preemptively covering their satanic plans against the Kogi voters. The SDP and its desperate candidate must also raise dust to keep their access to the pockets of their sponsors alive. We are miles ahead of the known and hideous conspirators.

“We wish to remind the Kogi voters who have resolved to continue and consolidate on the achievements of the past seven years, that the SDP and their co-travellers to a no point will continue their lies, name-dropping and spurious propaganda,” the party said.
