The aggrieved PDP executives alleged that the party candidate in the forthcoming November governorship election in the state, Samuel Anyanwu, was deploying the instrument of violence, and intimidation against them while making attempts to harm them.

Anyanwu emerged as the governorship candidate of the PDP in the forthcoming election in the state and was subsequently listed by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
