Niger PDP Congress In Limbo As Vehicles From Ex Governor Aliyu’s Residence Evacuates Electoral Officers
The people’s Democratic Party Congresses scheduled to hold today 12th of September is hanging in the air.
The delegates who were all on ground and ready to vote were taken aback when at about 3:15 vehicles from residence of former Governor Babangida Aliyu emerged to evacuate the Electoral officers from the venue to an unknown place.
The delegates are lamenting that after coming to pass the night in Minna and ready to vote, electoral officers will be evacuated with gunshots into the air by the police with vehicles from the residence of former Governor Babangida Aliyu.
The atmosphere was very peaceful and delegates were seen in groups dancing, chanting slogan of “Sau biyu” for the former chairman, Barrister Tanko Beji who is seeking a second term as Chairman.
It was glaring, Tanko Beji would have the day, before vehicles identifiable from Governor Babangida Aliyu’s residence emerged and evacuate the electoral officers.
No word from the electoral officers headed by Mohammed Imam, as delegates have been asked to remain calm and wait till there is an official communication from the electoral officers.
Signed: Tanko Beji for PDP Chairman, Campaign Team
Niger State.
