The Kwara State All Progressives Congress (APC) has said the state's chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has not recovered from post-elections trauma.

APC also dismissed the allegation by the PDP that the state government planned to victimise civil servants loyal to the PDP.

The ruling party said the allegation was unfounded, untrue and a false alarm.

A statement by its spokesperson, Alhaji Sulyman Buhari, assured that the APC administration would not victimise civil servants because of their political preferences in the last general elections.

Buhari said: "In as much as civil servants are Kwarans and they reserve the rights to vote whoever candidate and whichever party they so desire, it is also clear that civil servants are not politicians. By the term of appointment, they lack the right to involve in partisan politics.

"We, therefore, warn the opposition PDP to desist from its new ploy to politicise the affairs of Kwara State civil service.

"It is not true that the Abdulfatah Ahmed administration plans to victimise any civil servant. The allegation is unfounded, untrue and a mere false alarm.

"The false alarm by the traumatised opposition PDP is a failed attempt to cause conundrum and tension in the civil service.

"Meanwhile, considering the intent, content and tune of the false alarm by the PDP, it is evident the party is yet to recover from post-elections trauma..."
