Ebije, in a signed statement made available to journalists on Sunday, said it was the handwork of enemies of democracy, adding that desperate politicians have resorted to fabricating campaign posters to mislead and cause friction among the Niger State chapter of the Peoples Democratic PartY
Some forces must have watched or instructed Sawyer to leave the quarantine facility, in fact escorted him to the airport straight to our very porous airports
Ebije insisted that based on the unsavoury, personalized and pedestrian opinion of the state opposition party kicking against the security measures put in place by the Aliyu administration, the opposition has no security agenda for the people of the state
