Now that the APC apologists and primed star boys of fake news have had their say about what they wished to have happened to the PDP campaign in Akpabuyo, let me disappoint them a little with the true account of what really, factually happened in that local government area the day the PDP campaign swept into town.
After watching in consternation, I dare say trepidation, as mammoth crowd after mammoth crowd of people thronged the PDP campaign venues throughout the state, and especially in the Southern Senatorial Zone against their expectations, the APC turncoats in Akpabuyo may have panicked and resolved to disrupt the rally in the local government area, perhaps to gain extra plaudits from the Ayade Administration.
The chief conspirator of course was the usual suspect – the Council Chairman who is alleged to have arranged some able bodied youths to disrupt the rally in protest that they were not being “carried along or recognized.” But as soon as they fired a few shots into the air a brigade of other boys chased after them in hot pursuit.
St. Peter’s Catholic Primary School, Ekpre Tete, venue for the rally, was jam packed by the people of Akpabuyo to reaffirm their choice of the PDP as they recently demonstrated at the polls and their gratitude for the choice of their darling daughter, Mrs Emana Ambrose Amawhe as the running mate.
Most people at the venue did not even notice the sound of the few gunshots which was drowned by the excited singing and dancing by the people. The gunmen who were chased into the bushes by the boys of the area did not return again until the end of the hugely attended event. The facts are as stated above, if in doubt go to Akpabuyo and verify.
