Kogi PDP Halts Ward Congress After Thugs Invade Secretariat.
The Kogi State Caretaker Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), led by Senator Danjuma Laah, has decided to postpone the state ward congress initially set for Saturday. This decision follows an incident where hoodlums broke into the party’s state secretariat and stole critical electoral materials.
The committee’s spokesperson, Dayo Akande, stated that the postponement was made in collaboration with the congress committee chairman, Boyelayefa Debeleme. According to the statement, the attackers arrived in an 18-seater bus and other vehicles without proper identification, and their actions occurred in the presence of an observer from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). The stolen materials were essential for the congress across the 239 wards in the 21 Local Government Areas (LGAs) of the state.
The committee strongly condemned the theft and has called on INEC and other relevant bodies to disregard any results that may come from this disrupted process. This move aims to ensure that the congress can be conducted fairly and securely once the stolen materials are recovered and the situation is resolved.
