The Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign
Organisation alleged on Friday that the All Progressives Congress was planning
to announce fake presidential election results after the poll next week on
Radio Chanji.
The Director of Media and Publicity of the campaign
organisation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, who made the allegation at a news
conference in Abuja, said available facts before the Federal Government
indicated that the APC had a strong link with the broadcasting station.
Fani-Kayode further alleged that the APC would use the radio
station being operated from outside Nigeria, to spread dangerous propaganda to
cause chaos after the presidential poll next Saturday.
He said, “We believe that we have been vindicated on our
report just two days ago about the existence of Radio Chanji. This is despite
the denials and the lies by the APC about the true situation of things and
about their dastardly intentions and sinister plots to use the station for
nefarious purposes.”
He also claimed that the Nigerian Broadcasting Corporation
had confirmed that the radio station existed and, that it was possible that its
operations, which had been going on for some time, are being conducted from
outside the country.
He said the latest revelation by the NBC was of great
concern to the ruling party.
He said, “Once again, we wish to point out the dangers of
this radio station and the evil intention of the people behind it. “Apart from
anything else, they wish to use the station to announce false results after the
up-coming elections are conducted.”
But APC denied ownership of the broadcasting station.
The party said the station existed in the PDP’s imagination.
According to the APC National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, “As for Radio
Chanji, it exists only in the imagination of the PDP. We even strongly suspect
that they were the ones that set up that radio station because our party knows
nothing about Radio Chanji.
“They have been the ones talking about it so clearly; they
know more about it than we do so Nigerians should hold them responsible for
whatever comes out of it.”
