Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in Yobe said it has resolved not to participate in the state\u2019s 25th May 2024 local government elections.<\/p>\n

The Party\u2019s State Organizing Secretary, Mohammed Sulayman disclosed this at a press briefing on the development held in Damaturu, yesterday.<\/p>\n

He said the decision not to partake in the upcoming election followed due consultation.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is also a known fact in the history of our Dear State Yobe, that Local Government Council elections have never been free, fair, credible, and impartial under the state commission since inception.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wish to state that, it is not in any way whatsoever going to be different this time\u201d, he claimed.<\/p>\n

The Organizing Secretary accused the State Independent Electoral Commission of deliberately refusing to notify political parties in the state about the schedule of activities with respect to the upcoming election.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe outrageous cost enforced for the purchase of forms is calculated and deliberate to disfranchise the other political parties from participating in the election\u201d, he alleged.<\/p>\n

Recall that the Yobe State Independent Electoral Commission has slated the 25th of May, 2024 as the date for the conduct of local government Councils\u2019 election.<\/p>\n
