Sokoto – With ten days to the repeat of the governorship election in the state, the Peoples Democratic Party has accused the Federal Government and the All Progressives Congress of plotting to use the military and other security agents to win the state by force.
But the PDP, on whose platform governor Aminu Wiziri Tambuwal ran and will also run in the rescheduled election, issued a strongly worded warning on Thursday against the federal government and the opposition APC in Sokoto not to contemplate using any instrument of force to stall the will of Sokoto voters.
This is clear with a view to militarising the polls in order to intimidate and terrify our people into submission and deny them the freedom and composure to elect candidates of their choice, the same game plan of the APC for the two subsequent elections.
