The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Sokoto state, on Monday said it was not in support of the postponement of the local government election and threatened to take legal action if the State Independent Electoral Commission (SIEC) failed to fix a new date within two weeks.
It also alleged that the postponement of local government elections in Sokoto state by the SIEC was as a result of the discovery of connivance between the Commission and the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state.
This was contained in a statement signed by the PDP Secretary, Alhaji Kabiru Aliyu, a copy of which was issued to newsmen in Sokoto on Monday.
The PDP referred to an earlier statement in which it alleged that the APC and SIEC had planned to rig the local government elections.
"Having realized that the plot has been uncovered and is in public domain, both the APC and the electoral body decided to postpone the elections indefinitely.
