Oyo APC accuses PDP of instigating protests in Ibadan

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo State has accused the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) of instigating protests in the state.

DAILY POST reports that Ibadan, the state capital has been witnessing a series of protests in the last few days.

APC in a statement made available to journalists on Wednesday accused Governor Seyi Makinde and the PDP of being the brains behind the pockets of protest being witnessed in parts of Ibadan.

Publicity Secretary of the APC, Wasiu Olawale Sadare, in the statement, appealed for calm and patience among the citizens, adding that violent protests and unrest would not solve the problems.

Sadare said, “There are all indications that the pockets of protest being witnessed in some major parts of Ibadan were coordinated and sponsored by the PDP government of Oyo State with a view to frustrating the Presidential Rally of our great Party (APC) which was moved from Tuesday last week and rescheduled for tomorrow (Thursday) as it became imperative for us to act in the mood of the nation”.
