Imo: PDP demands immediate release of INEC officials illegally detained by Uzodinma govt
By Adeleye Kunle
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Imo State has described the arrest and continued detention of Chidiebere Eze, Felix Agu and other officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) by the APC-led regime of Senator Hope Uzodinma as an attempt to intimidate and cow the electoral umpire so as to yield to the desperate plot by the failed APC to rig the 2023 elections in the state.
PDP said the Inspector General of Police must step into this matter very quickly to caution and restrain his men who are now obviously in bed with the dysfunctional APC government in Imo State and whose actions are becoming inimical to democratic consolidation in Nigeria.
The opposition PDP stated this in a statement signed by Collins Opurozor, the Publicity Secretary of the party, made available on Thursday in Owerri, Imo State.
The statement read, “Our Party, therefore, demands that all INEC officials being held in various detention facilities across the State and ruthlessly tortured on the orders of the appointees and agents of the infamous APC in the State be unconditionally released without any further delay.
“Our Party urges Imo people to rise to the occasion and defend democracy and defeat the anti-democratic forces that are working relentlessly to keep the masses in perpetual bondage
