The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its governorship candidate for the August 9 election, Iyiola Omisore, of planning to cause a breach of the peace in the state.
APC said that the intelligence reports at its disposal alleged that a plot has been hatched to import miscreants and thugs to the State of Osun to stage protests in order to create mayhem across the state.
In a statement issued on Saturday, APC further alleged that “These senseless and unwarranted protests are intended to manipulate the populace, the electorate and the electoral system in their (PDP and Omisore) favour.
“Plans are said to have been concluded by both Omisore and the PDP to create a virtual state of confusion before August 9 believing that if the plan works, it would facilitate an easier manipulation of the electoral process and their rigging exercise.
“This is a sinister conspiracy against law and order in Osun, which has been known and confirmed by responsible individuals and foreign diplomats in the country as a safe and peaceful place to do business and attract investments.”
The APC therefore called on law enforcement agencies to ensure that the alleged plan does not succeed in the interest of democracy, law and order and peace in Osun State.
