The National Working Committee of the Action Peoples Party (APP) has raised the alarm over plot by agents of the Federal Capital Territory Minister, Nyeson Wike to frame its National Chairman, Ochiagha Uche Nnadi.
In a statement issued in Abuja by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Ugo Apu, the APP claimed it intercepted credible intelligence that persons allegedly close to Wike, plan to accuse Nnadi of committing acts of treason, bribery of judicial officers and forgery of court documents.
The statement read: “Since the landslide victory of our party in the Rivers State local government election, persons allegedly close to the FCT minister instituted cases in court seeking the deregistration of the APP.
“Having realised the futility of their cases, they have now resorted to the dark art of attempting to frame our national chairman, and key opposition voices to silence them and stop them from speaking out against their impunity in the PDP, Rivers State and the FCT land grabbing scandal.”

Apu therefore, called on Nigerians to be on the lookout for the tales by moonlight type of stories and their AI enhanced evidence, which cannot amount to upturning the party’s electoral successes at the Rivers State Local Government elections.
It stated that the sacked 27 lawmakers remain sacked and that the president must order for an audit of the ongoing land grabbing allegations in the FCT to help save Nigerian democracy.
“Some people are acting like they own Rivers State and the FCT. They have failed to come to terms with the fact that APP has won majority seats in the election. This onslaught will fail, and APP will continue as the fastest-growing political party in Nigeria,” the statement added.
