Civil servants in Kano are being threatened by the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) because of the ongoing party registration. The allegation was made by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Specifically, it alleged that the APC in the state is threatening civil servants in the state to join the party or lose benefits like their salaries.

According to the party, this further exposed the level of public rejection that is now confronting the party.

It said this in reaction to media report that some states in the Northeast geopolitical zone were threatening workers with ‘no registration for the APC, no salary’.

In a statement issued by the national publicity secretary of the PDP, Kola Ologbondiyan, the party said:

“one can only pity APC leaders over the crushing public apathy against their fraudulent membership registration exercise, for which their Kano state Chairman, Abdulahi Abbas, out of frustration, threatened civil servants and other innocent Nigerians in the state to join their dying party or lose all benefits and opportunities from the state government.”
