CASKET THREAT ; PDP Accuse APGA Of Blackmail. Pictures. by PhockPhockMan(op): 2:15pm On Apr 23, 2015

PRESS STATEMENT FROM PDP CANDIDATE, IKPEAZU.

This morning, people in Aba woke up to find
caskets placed in some areas with a warning that
they shouldn't go against a particular group's
interest or they will die. PDP governorship
candidate in the state, Dr Okezie Ikpeazu has
dissociated himself from the incident. His
statement below..
The attention of Dr Okezie Ikpeazu, the People's
Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate for
Abia State, has been drawn to the ugly incident
witnessed in Aba this morning, where caskets are
being dropped at various places in Aba, with a
threat that those who will not vote for Dr. Ikpeazu
and the PDP in the Saturday's supplementary
election will die.
Dr Okezie is by this means dissociating himself
from such dastardly act, and also inform Abians
and the general public that such is the handiwork
of the opposition who have shown their
desperations in various ways since the beginning
of the governorship contest.
Dr. Okezie is however assuring Aba people who
have always supported him not to be deterred by
the intimidation from Alex Otti and his party, APGA,
urging Ndi Aba and Abians in the wards and polling
units where the supplementary election will hold
on Saturday to come out and vote him as they did
on April 11.
Dr. Ikpeazu is also urging the Aba business
community to go about their lawful business
without any fear of molestations.

Dr Okezie Ikpeazu
