This was contained in a press statement signed by its publicity Secretary, Yusuf Idris Gusau
The APC is calling on relevant authorities to as a matter of urgency take necessary actions to prevent any attempt by the main opposition party to disrupt the election and peace enjoyed in the state
The statement adds that the party has petitioned the Directorate of State Service and other security agencies on the matter
The APC further appeal to it’s Members, and electorates to remain calm and vote Candidates of their choice on election day
Efforts to speak to the PDP spokesperson in Gusau proves abortive as his phone lines were not going through
It would be recalled that Supporters of the APC and PDP had clashed almost three times since the build up of Electioneering Campaigns ahead of the 2023 General election, which led to the dead of one person and several others injured.
