Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Uche Secondus

Buhari’s Regime Has Been Intimidating Opposition Members

Uche Secondus, the National Chairman of the People Democratic Party (PDP), has stated that members of the opposition are ready to be arrested, intimidated and even killed as the 2019 general election draw closer.

The statement was made when the thirty nine political parties met in Abuja on Monday to sign a Memorandum of Understanding to produce a single presidential candidate in 2019.

The PDP Chairman stated that President Muhammadu Buhari’s regime has been intimidating the views of the opposing side.

He alleged that the government of Buhari was planning to either arrest or jail vocal members of the opposition before the 2019 general elections.

“Just last week, the APC conquest regime came up with Executive Order which all political watchers including civil society groups liken to Decree 2 of the military era.

“We know why they are doing this on the eve of a general election because they know the people have turned their back on them, but they want to retain power at all costs including cowing us down.

“But we cannot be cowed, if our heroes past had been cowed down we would not have democracy or a nation today.

“I therefore call on all of us to be strong, steadfast and courageous. Let’s chase out the APC in our lives and form a national government that will bring succour to our people.”
