Kogi Central PDP Senatorial Candidate, Natasha Akpoti Uduaghan
The Kogi State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) has condemned the destruction of billboards belonging to the PDP Senatorial Candidate, for Kogi Central, Natasha Akpoti Uduaghan.
The Council, in a statement issued over the weekend by the Chairman of the Media Campaign Committee of the party, Austin Ochu, said the action was condemnable and bitter politics taken too far, to test the patience of the main opposition party in Kogi.
The Council also said the provocative tendencies being orchestrated by the ruling APC in Kogi State, would not augur well for democratic practices across the state.
It wondered why the continuous onslaught on Natasha's billboards, having met the criteria put in place by the state government by paying the stipulated fines, yet to no avail.
The Media Committee warned against the consequences of the APC supporters taking laws into their hands, by launching an affront against the main opposition PDP.
The Campaign Council called on the state government and security agencies “to launch a thorough investigation to unearth the culprits forthwith”, warning that there would be dire consequences if the opposition in the state should react.
It maintained the strong advocacy on issue-based campaign by the PDP, stating that it would not be part of a grand plan by the ruling APC to breach the sane conducts capable of affecting the peace of the state.
