Lokoja, Kogi State – July 12, 2023 – In a recent development, the Kogi State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) is once again embroiled in a controversial situation.
Reports have emerged that loyalists of the ruling party are orchestrating a plan to exploit an SDP-branded vehicle to carry out destructive activities targeting the All Progressives Congress (APC) properties in Lokoja.
Interestingly, it has been alleged that the very individuals who vandalized Social Democratic Party (SDP) properties in Lokoja previously are the ones entrusted with executing this planned attack.
They intend to capture the incident on video and subsequently share it with the public, thereby creating an illusion that SDP members are prone to violence. This strategy seems to be an attempt to justify the recent assault on the SDP state office.
It is important to note that members of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in Kogi State are known for their commitment to peace and non-violence. They have demonstrated their dedication to the upcoming November 11 elections, confident in their highly regarded and electable candidate.
However, it is crucial for the public, the Nigeria Police Force, the Department of State Security Service, and other relevant agencies to be promptly informed about this planned political crisis in Kogi State.
The need for vigilance and proactive measures cannot be overemphasized, as it is essential to safeguard the integrity of the electoral process and ensure a fair and peaceful atmosphere for all political parties involved.
The authorities should take immediate action to investigate these claims and prevent any potential violence or manipulation of public opinion during this crucial period in Kogi State’s political landscape.
