The senatorial candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kogi Central, Barr Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has accused workers of the Kogi governor, Yahaya Bello of cutting off roads to prevent INEC officials and other stakeholders from accessing the senatorial district.

In a video that has gone viral, the PDP candidate alleged that the government ordered the excavation of all access roads linking to her hometown.

She believes this is a planned attack by the governor to disrupt the polls in the state as she called on well-meaning Nigerians to come to her aid.

As of the time of filing this report, the said construction firm has already dug pits in four major access roads in Okehi local government area.

When contacted, the State Commissioner of Information, Kingsley Fanwo, could not be reached as he was declining calls put across to him by our reporter.

This is madness!!! Yahaya Bello allegedly destroys roads leading to Natasha's hometown to prevent @inecnigeria from getting there.
