Ahmed Makarfi, former Caretaker Committee Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, on Thursday accused the All Progressives Congress, APC-led Federal Government of politicizing security across the country.
The former Kaduna State Governor said this during a political visit to Plateau State secretariat of PDP.
He assured that when PDP returns to power in 2019, security will not be politicized.
According to Makarfi, “We will not politicise security matter. It is a matter which affects everybody. One thing that this government has done is trying to politicise security. The PDP government will not politicise security matter.
“We will work with everybody; we will work with traditional rulers; we will work with religious leaders, community leaders; it will be fair, justice and equity for all without any kind of discrimination.
“We will give the security agencies the enablement to perform and if this is done, they must perform or we will use the stick and carrot approach and those who failed to perform will be shown the way out.”
Makarfi expressed optimism that his party will wrestle power from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) during the 2019 presidential elections.
“Winning election is not about one individual, it is all about the PDP movement, it is all about the people. The PDP supported me when I was chairman caretaker committee and we were able to resuscitate PDP and the Party is seen by Nigerians and all over the world as an alternative government in waiting.”
