Coffin Brought to PDP National Secretariat in Abuja

disqualified from participating in last week­end state assemblies pri­maries yesterday stormed the party's national secre­tariat in Abuja with coffin in protest.

The aspirants, who came with party thugs, carrying emp­ty coffins, blocked the entrance to Wadata Plaza.

National Woman Leader, Kema Chikwe and National Vice Chairman, South-South of the party, Cairo Ojougboh, were turned back by the aspi­rants.

Some of them, who spoke with newsmen accused the PDP National Working Com­mittee and the state chapter of the party of conniving with former Minister of State for Education and governorship aspirant, Nyesom Wike of frus­trating their aspirations.

A state Assembly aspirant, Davis Saloka, from Eleme constituency, said they were at the PDP secretariat to kick against the "open robbery per­petrated against them by the party."
