The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has raised alarm that thugs purportedly sponsored by the All Progressives Congress, APC, are being escorted around by soldiers, with a view to perpetrating electoral malpractices unhindered in the ongoing governorship election in Bayelsa State.
The PDP raised the alarm in a series of tweets via its verified twitter handle, @PDPNIGERIA.

Where are the 14,000 policemen deployed to Bayelsa State 4 this election? Why have APC thugs become more powerful than our security agents?
