The All Progressives Congress has said the forthcoming general elections may not be peaceful in Okrika and Ogu/Bolo Local Government Areas of Rivers State due to alleged plan by the Peoples Democratic Party to use security agencies to arrest its leaders and sympathisers before the election day.

They also alleged, without accusing anybody or group in particular, that at least 10 of its leaders in the two local government areas might be kidnapped before the election day.

Chairmen of the APC in the two local government areas, Christian Asifamaka (APC Okrika) and Chief Israel Iboms (APC Ogu/Bolo),said this in a petition to the National Human Rights Commission.

The petition, titled, RE: Threat to peaceful elections in Okrika and Ogu/Bolo Local Government Areas of Rivers State, Nigeria read in part, Now the PDP and its Abuja authority have finalised plans to prevent the APC in these LGAs from voting in the forthcoming elections.

This, they intended by using all the security agencies to arrest our leaders, party agents and community leaders who are sympathetic to APC a few days before the elections on false charges.
