...Says Alaibe Sponsoring Thugs to Disrupt Process



The PDP Youth Group has raised the alarm that a former Managing Director òf the Niger Delta Development Commission and Gubernatorial aspirant, Chief Timi Alaibe, has engaged Armed miscreants to disrupt the local government Ward Congresses scheduled for Friday.

The group said that Alaibe and some of his cohorts were arming miscreants to cause commotion to disrupt the planned delegates congress.

The Chairman of the group, Comrade Lionel Ebilade, said that Alaibe and some of the aspirants linked to former President Jonathan and his wife, Mrs. Patience Jonathan, had opted to disrupt the exercise with the realization that they lacked the grassroots support to win any contest.

He said that one Barnabas Edure was in charge of executing the evil plot against the PDP in Sagbama; Chief Rufus Abadi, Southern Ijaw and Senator Amange in Brass Constituency.

Ebilade alleged that Alaibe and the other aspirants were out to oppose the smooth conduct of the ward delegate congress with the intent to force the National leadership of the party to conduct the September 3, 2019 primaries with the statutory delegates.

Ebilade said that his group was concerned with the issue of the smooth process for the delegate election because of the need for the best and most popular candidate to fly the party’s flag after a credible, free and fair contest.

Edilade said that the group had alerted security agencies of the plot and urged them to be alive to their responsibilities.

He urged security agencies to ensure the arrest of anybody with unauthorized arms and ammunition and any dangerous weapon within the vicinity of the venue of the Congress.
