The Delta State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has denied fixing “any date for local council elections in the state.”
In a release signed by the state publicity secretary, Dr Ifeanyi Osuoza, the party said it has not fixed any date for council elections, nor “released any purported details for Local Government Council Elections in the state.”
Osuoza said, “The Delta State PDP chairman did not and has not signed any notice giving details for the conduct of local government council elections in the state.
“Deltans and the general public are, by this disclaimer, therefore advised and urged to dismiss and disregard a post going around on social media claiming that the Delta PDP chairman signed a notice with dates and details for the conduct of local government council elections.
“The dates and details for the conduct of the local government council elections in the state will be communicated to Deltans and the general public through the proper communication channels of the party in due course.
“Please disregard any fake notice going around as regards the conduct of local government council elections in the state,” Dr. Osuoza said
