Bayelsa state governor, Seriake Dickson has come out to say that the Nigerian Army terrorized voters during the last election.
Daily Post reports that the Army carried out a coup on democracy in the Presidential and National Assembly election that took place weeks back.
Seriake Dickson also asked PDP supporters in the state to come out in their numbers to vote for every PDP candidate this Saturday.
His words, “The Nigerian nation has once again failed our people by preventing them not only from voting but also accessing their homes in places such as Nembe Bassambiri.
“Even when we sent Civil Defence Corps and mobile police operatives to the communities, the hoodlums and their supporters chased them away. I’m afraid that our communities are becoming a lawless society.
“The last election that held just a few days ago can best be described as a military coup against democracy in our state. I don’t expect anything less in this coming election, but despite that, we won in all the units, wards, and constituencies where election took place.
“But let me assure you that the charade they organised in Nembe Bassambiri and Southern Ijaw will not stand. I urge PDP leaders not to fall prey to the propaganda and blackmail.”
