The Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) has accused certain individuals within the ruling party of plotting to weaken the opposition and undermine its efforts to collaborate ahead of the 2027 general election. In a statement released early Thursday, the party's National Chairman, Dr Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, alleged that former and current party officials were being exploited to sow discord and erode grassroots support.
The PRP claimed that senior ruling party members were being enticed to finance the alleged scheme with substantial sums of money. They urged members and the public to resist any recruiting of polling agents without proper authorization, warning that financial inducements might be used to sway party loyalty towards opposition candidates.
The party also cautioned serving officials suspected of involvement in the plot, threatening disciplinary consequences. The PRP officially warned its members and the public against engaging with these divisive forces. Baba-Ahmed called on party officials linked to the alleged scheme to sever ties with what the party described as efforts to create a fictitious PRP using their funds and names.
He pledged the party's continued dedication to opposing the ongoing administration beyond 2027 and supporting a potentially successful opposition coalition, but refrained from naming those allegedly involved in the scheme.
