We are sending a clear and unequivocal message to anybody under any guise that is parading himself/herself as a splinter group or group of persons from the APC, that there is nothing like that.
As chief security officers of our respective local government areas, we will not allow any group of persons hold any rally or meetings in our local governments because we have the directive from the state and the police authirities that no rally should be held in any local government.
We are respecters of law and order. As chief security officers of our local governments, we will ensure that no rally holds in any local government. If you hold any rally, you are doing that at your own peril.
This is a clear message. If you are planning to hold any rally anywhere have a rethink because we will not allow it”, Osunde concluded.
