– Chaos erupted outside the Governorship Election Tribunal in Benin City today when an unidentified man, dressed in clothing resembling that of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), began firing sporadically into the air. The incident has sparked accusations from the PDP, who allege that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) orchestrated the act as part of a broader scheme to disrupt the ongoing legal challenge over the disputed Edo State governorship election.

In a statement issued by Dr. Anthony Aziegbemi, Chairman of the Edo PDP Caretaker Committee, the party condemned the shooting as a “desperate attempt” by the APC to frustrate the tribunal’s proceedings and discredit the PDP. The statement emphasized that the PDP had, before the start of the Tribunal proceedings, instructed all its to avoid the venue in anticipation of potential APC-instigated violence.

“Pray tell, why would the PDP attempt to disrupt the only opportunity it has to reclaim the mandate given to it by the people of Edo State during the last governorship election?” the statement read. It also highlighted that the gunman, whose was captured moving freely on a busy street outside the court premises in a viral video circulating on social media, acted openly yet was not apprehended by the police who were nearby.

Eyewitness s suggest that the shooter arrived at the courthouse in a white unmarked Hilux wearing a mask and PDP-branded attire, before causing panic with gunfire. Videos from the scene show people scattering as the gunman fired into the air multiple times. Security personnel eventually restored order, but the incident has left many questioning the adequacy of law enforcement’s response.

The PDP alleged that the APC, known for employing similar tactics in local councils and public spaces, orchestrated the act to intimidate and distract from the tribunal’s critical proceedings. They called on law enforcement agencies to arrest and prosecute the shooter, an alleged APC member whose identity is reportedly discernible from the circulating footage.

The incident underscores the heightened tensions surrounding the governorship election tribunal, where the PDP is contesting the declared victory of Monday Okpebholo of the APC. The PDP insists that its victory was stolen through widespread irregularities and has pledged to use the tribunal to reclaim its mandate.

The Edo PDP concluded its statement with a stern warning to the APC: “We say enough is enough of this rascality and lawlessness. This must stop immediately before it leads to a total breakdown of law and order in the State.”

I do not know why APC does not want this tribunal process to go smoothly.
Evil party trying to use every means to claim the mandate of Edo people.

Why are APC afraid of going to Court? Where they not the one that asked PDP to use the Court and reclaim their alleged stolen mandate?
APC is a cancer that has affected the limb and must be amputated immediately before it infects other parts of the body.

Edo no be Lagos, so they say!

Let me add:


Edo can't be Lagos!


That's why it's called "The Centre of Excellence and "The Pride of Nigeria".

@hotseat

Funny enough, this same boy is well known as a staunch APC er. He was among those arrested by Ogbe boys on the eve of the election with fake electoral materials and handed over to the police but unfortunately, the police released him.
The big question is this, if he was a PDP tout, why was he not gunned down or arrested by the police? Rather, he was being carried around in a hilux van.

It's a common knowledge that the PDP will never result to such rascality when it's stolen mandate is at stake here. Beside, why would a PPD agent do such dirty assignment wearing the party's logo when his party is not in control at the federal or even state level?

Apc must tell the whole world what it is afraid of in Edo state.

Who rigs best is the winner, because I'm fairly certain the both rigged

But most importantly APC has infiltrated PDP, they have moles and double agents among them, people who have been promised one thing or another and since Nigerians care for their own interest more Tiffnubu will continue buying, from Eyeneck to Jujuciary


The best part an the proof of this claim is that PDP isn't even actin like opposition but thy gather to call Obidients all sorts of names


If Tiffnubu no win 2027 make I bend especially with this kind of madness supposed opposition are doing

Bergavis:

So who is he d with?

APC or PDP or APDP?
