According to THIS DAY, the campaign organization made the threat after it was revealed that APC leaders told their unit heads on Friday at former Leventis House, Sokponba Road, Benin City, to disrupt any polling unit where the PDP candidate wins during voting and counting of ballots papers.

A statement by the campaign office read, ''We have been informed by an insider at the meeting that APC leaders further warned their members that the election results must not be allowed to be declared by INEC presiding officers should PDP win in any unit in the state.

''The insider further informed us that APC had finally given up any hope of winning the election, and they are now planning crude measures to rig the election, including making their members as INEC ad-hoc staff members. And if this is what they are planning, then they have failed because our members have been instructed to defend their votes by all means necessary.''

''Election is not a do or die affair; we must allow the will of the Edo people to prevail in the election; and those who want to test the strength and will of our supporters should think twice because the negative consequences will be very huge’’, the organisation added.
