The Edo State government has accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) today as the mastermind behind clash at the Idia College in Benin City, a venue for the Continuous Voters Registration (CVR) which commences on Monday by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
This was released in a statement by the Edo State Commissioner for Communication and Orientation, Chris Nehikhare who condemned the action.
The attack occurred on Tuesday.
Nehikhare accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of making attempt to instigate violence and cause crisis in the State as a desperation to halt the current Continuous Voters Registration (CVR) by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
The Commissioner however urge the security agents to wade into action, urging all Edo People not to be discouraged by the desperation of APC.
Nehikhare however beckon on the People of Edo State to register for their Permanent Voters Cards (PVC) and engage in the September 21 gubernatorial election with the aim of a violence free and credible election.
However the Police negate the claim of the Commissioner, Chris Nehikhare, assuring their trail of those evil perpetrators.
