Addressing a press conference yesterday in Abuja, the PDP National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan claimed that part of the ‘plot’ was to shutdown the Akure airport in the name of carrying out routine maintenance to stop PDP leaders and members from reaching Ekiti.

The party also accused the Ondo State government of conniving with the federal government to ensure the rally does not hold.
