PEOPLES Democratic Party (PDP) has raised alarm over the circulation of fake membership cards by the party's "opponents."

Its National Publicity Secretary, Mr. John Odey, who disclosed this weekend in a statement, warned that security agents would arrest and prosecute those found in possession of the fake cards.

He therefore advised memb ers of the party to insist on genuine cards during revalidation of their membership or while registering as fresh members.
