From Uche Nnorom, Makurdi
All Progressives Congress, (APC), Benue State chapter has urged the Peoples’ Democratic Party, PDP, in the State to rather concentrate on their huge and impossible task of marketing the liability it has imposed on itself as governorship candidate.
Publicity Secretary of APC Daniel Ihomun who gave the advice in a statement made available to Peoples Daily yesterday, also, urged its teeming supporters across the state not to be moved by the desperate kicks of the Peoples’ Democratic Party in the state which has occupied itself with the winner of the APC governorship primaries, Rev Fr. Hyacinth Alia.
“People of the state can recall that ever since joining the APC and going ahead to win the party’s governorship primaries, Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Alia has remained the nightmare and boogeyman of the PDP with the state chapter praying that they rather not have him on the ballot in 2023 which is the only way they can signal any hope of maintaining their grip on the state’s treasury.
“The PDP and her uncouth members have resorted to fake news and fabricated stories to misinform the public and instill doubts on the status of our candidate. We like to state that for the avoidance of doubt, Rev. Fr Hyacinth Alia remains the winner of the APC governorship primaries in Benue state and the authentic candidate and standard-bearer of our party in the state.
“People of Benue state especially members of the APC are to disregard concocted stories from the PDP and consider their propaganda as the last kicks of a dying horse”, the statement said.
