At an emergency press briefing on Thursday presided over by PDP national publicity secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, the party submitted that “the invasion and illegal occupation of the state legislature by security agents allegedly deployed by the sacked national chairman of the APC, Adams Oshiomhole,” is a direct coup against the democratic order of Edo state and a recipe for anarchy, chaos and bloodletting.
The PDP charged the police hierarchy to note that “this provocative and lawless act by the APC is part of its plans to overheat the polity and create a security situation with the view to unleash violence on the people, derail the democratic order in the state and blame it on security agencies.” “Our party has been informed that the plot is to use the illegal security operation to seize the processes of the House of Assembly and illegally inaugurate certain individuals whose seats have been lawfully declared vacant with plans to use them to pull down the democratic structure in the state,” Ologbondiyan added.
