Description

The governorship candidate of Social Democratic Party in Rivers State, Magnus Abe, has alleged that there is a plot by the People Democratic Party in the state to arrest key leaders of the SDP.
He alleged the plot was in collaboration with the Rivers State Police Command.
Abe raised the alarm at the inauguration of the SDP governorship campaign council in Port Harcourt on Tuesday.
He said that the move was aimed at intimidating members of the party and stampede them out of the forthcoming governorship election in the state.
Abe, however, called on SDP members in the state not to be afraid or intimidated by the plots, saying they must be part of the election process
While urging them to mobilise across the 23 local government areas of the state for the February 25 presidential and March 11 governorship elections, he expressed optimism that the party will win the elections in the state.
He stated, “I have received very credible report that names of the leaders and members of SDP across the State have been compiled and petitions have been completed by PDP in collaboration with some security agencies to arrest the leaders of SDP in the State.
