Labour Party, LP in Ika South Local Government Area of Delta State have accused the ruling party in Delta State, Peoples Democratic Party, PDP of hijacking the palliative meant for Ika South people, describing the action as evil.
The Labour Party noted that Ika South belongs to everybody and not for PDP alone
In a statement made available to pressmen after the party meeting, on Thursday, September 28, 2023 at the party’s secretariat in Agbor, Delta State, the party concluded thus, “We are saddened to notify the general public about the evil activities perpetrated by PDP in Ika South, as they hijacked palliative which belong to the people of Ika South”.
“President Tinubu is an APC man but, he approved palliative for all the states in Nigeria, Delta State inclusive. This implies that President Tinubu being a member of APC is a president of Nigerians and he did not limit the palliative to members of APC alone but to entire Nigerians”.
“However, members of the ruling party in Delta State and Ika South in particular,are parading themselves as the bonafide owner of the local government. They cornered the palliative meant for Ika South people and shared it among themselves and members of their families. The palliative belong to everyone in the local government. They should not come out later and say that the palliative was shared among the people”.
“Imagine, if it were PDP ruling Nigeria, nothing will be given to the people, except their party members. PDP does not mean well for the people in the local government”.
“Ika South people should be informed that PDP has cornered their palliative and don’t care about them. You don’t play politics with what belong to the people. No one in Ika South except PDP members received palliative package”.
“It is appalling that the food items made for the poor masses were shared among the few greedy persons in PDP. Tomorrow, they will have the audacity to say that the food items were shared to the people. If not for their selfish interests, why didn’t they come out publicly to distribute the food items?. There is no sense of belongings and oneness here. They did it in a way that nobody is aware that such a thing was done in Ika South”.
“Later, they will come out and tell the people to vote for them for effective representation.”.
“Again, we are letting the general public know about the evil intention of PDP in the local government. They don’t mean good for the people. They are there to suffocate the people so as to enrich themselves”.
“Finally, Ika South Labour Party frowns at the action of PDP and declare it as anti-people. We are calling on the federal government to summon PDP to give account of how the palliative in Ika South were shared”.
