National Publicity Secretary of the party, Debo Ologunagba, speaking to reporters in Abuja yesterday, said that the PDP was alerting Nigerians and international community about shocking revelations and allegations by APC to influence the outcome of the Presidential election Petition currently pending before the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal.
However, in response to PDP's petition at the Presidential Election Tribunal, Minister of State, labor and employment, Festus Keyamo accused the opposition party yesterday of resorting to cheap blackmail and reverse psychology tactics aimed at hoodwinking Nigerians into aligning with its cause.
“Ologunagba continued: “The PDP also alerts of recent intimidation, harassment, threats and vicious attacks by APC leaders against Nigerian youths and eminent Nigerian personalities for speaking out against APC’s planned moves to install a government that does not enjoy the mandate of majority of Nigerians as expressed at the polling units.
“The alleged planned onslaught by APC leaders on eminent Nigerians and our democratic institutions, including the judiciary, stems from APC’s apprehension, given the weight of evidence against it as well as the continuing refusal by majority of Nigerians to accept the outcome of the flawed Presidential election.
“There are apprehensions in the public space, having regards to the reputation of certain individuals within the highest level of the APC, who have demonstrated capacity and proclivity to compromise democratic institutions in our country.
