The Edo State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Thursday objected to the signing of the Peace Accord organised by the National Peace Committee (NPC) to ensure peaceful elections, alleging bias on the part of the police, the agency responsible for enforcing the peace accord.
Edo State chairman of the party, Dr Anthony Aziegbemi, said the police have shown that they are one-sided, adding that, “In the course of preparations for this election, however, strange and disturbing new elements have been introduced, in particular by a party that has apparently reached the conclusion that it cannot prevail in a free, fair, and peaceful election.”
