The PDP publicity secretary noted that the rate at which members of the party were being harassed was getting out of hands.
He particularly expressed anger over what he thought-about as the harassment of party members throughout the State, noting that there isn’t a the place within the country where party members are being harassed like in Borno.
โAPC should stop intimidating our members, we will now not take it; enough is enough. They donโt have to assault us; they should fulfill what they promised us.
โEnough of this, we’re not in a military era. What I’m telling them is that God isn’t sleeping. When the time comes, the people will communicate by their votes.
โWe will not be intimidated or distracted, there will not be impunity, there will be zero tolerance to imposition of candidates.
โWe’re law-abiding citizens. we didn’t flout any law.
โIf this persecution is about politics, my political party and the 2023 elections, I dare say that only God and Nigerians would decide. No amount of persecution would alter the will of God,โ Adziba said.
