How PDP chairman Secondus is working against 2019 polls – APC chieftain, Eze

Chief Chukwuemeka Eze, a chieftain of the All Progressives Party (APC) in Rivers State, has accused the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Prince Uche Secondus, of working against conduct of the 2019 general elections

He stated that Secondus was among those that don’t want to the National Assembly to reconvene in order to approve the INEC budget, which will enable the body conduct the election accordingly.

Eze, in a statement on Saturday, was reacting to alarm by the PDP leader that the Buhari government was not ready for credible polls.

He insisted that that the current APC-led federal government, under President Muhammadu Buhari, was determined to give Nigeria one of its most credible elections so far.

Eze charged Nigerians and the international community to pay more attention to the conduct of the opposition party, before and during the elections.

He said: “It is unfortunate and sad that a leader of the status of Secondus could not see anything good and hope for our nation, but take pleasure in presenting the nation before the international community as a collapsing nation”, Eze said.

“If Secondus has ruined PDP to the extent that he is afraid to face APC in the 2019 general elections, he should step aside and allow capable hands to reposition the party to play its statutory role as an opposition political party.

“This devious plot against the nation by the PDP elements notwithstanding, INEC and the federal government have reassured Nigerians that the election will hold as scheduled.

“What other assurance does Prince Uche Secondus and PDP need to face the election that will expose its present sorrow state”, Eze quipped.
