Supporters of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Dekina Local Government Area, Kogi State, are at each other’s throats over the ongoing recruitment process for the National Forest Guard Scheme.
Allegations and counter-allegations rent the air as to how slots originally given to the local government were shared among party faithfuls and some loyalists, leaving the larger majority out of the scheme.
One of the protesters, Siaka Ottete, wrote on his Facebook that he is dissatisfied with the whole process and called on the attention of the members of the National Assembly representing them to quickly intervene before it degenerates into anarchy.
