Re-IPAC Appeals For Postponement of Local Government Election in Yobe State
By Faruk Adebisi, Damaturu
This is to notify the Yobe state government and the general public that the purported statement issued by the suspended chairman of the inter-party Advisory Committee (IPAC) doesn’t emanate from the secretariat of the party in Yobe State.
At no point did the 17-member committee sit and issue any statement regarding the forthcoming local government election that was scheduled for November this year. The Fake chairman has been expelled from the Accord party which he represented on the committee of IPAC,said the local government elections have been slated for November and it must be held irrespective of what the fake chairman wants us to believe.
There is no way the rainy season will disenfranchise the electorate from participating in the election because of farming.Local government elections will hold in less than 12 hour in a day and this exercise will not make the farmers to loose any thing rather than to exercise their rights as a citizen of their various local governments.
The function of IPAC among other things is to checkmate the excess of the government and offer constructive opposition when the government is going astray. We shall not allow IPAC to be used by a certain individual to derail democracy by issuing a statement that does not come from IPAC.
The IPAC secretariat hereby denounces and disassociated itself from the statement of the Fake chairman, we support the forthcoming local government elections slated for November this year. We enjoying the public to ignore the communique issued by the fake chairman of IPAC and his cohort concerning the forthcoming local government elections in the state.
Sign: IPAC Secretary.
