BREAKING: APC Thugs Arrested Trying To Smuggle Guns Into Edo State Ahead Of Guber Poll [VIDEO]

Thugs alleged to have been sent by the All Progressives Congress (APC) have been arrested with guns and other weapons by security operatives in Edo State.

This comes ahead of the Edo State off-cycle governorship election scheduled for September 21st, 2024.

A video shared by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP on its X handle on Friday night, alleged that the thugs were sponsored and sent by the APC ahead of the poll.

The video showed the moment security operatives apprehended the suspects in a Sienna vehicle and recovered the guns and other materials from them.

Voices in the background in the video continued shouting that the thugs were sent by the APC.

A post by PDP to accompany the video reads, “Security Operatives and the people of Edo State apprehend @OfficialAPCNg thugs trying to smuggle guns into Edo State ahead of Saturday’s governorship election.

“We salute the courage of the Edo people in their determination to ensure that only the Will of the people prevails.”

The APC is yet to react to this allegation and the video at the time of filing this report.

The governorship election is between three major candidates – Asue Ighodalo of the PDP, Monday Okpebholo of the APC, and Olumide Akpata of the Labour Party (LP).
