The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Wednesday, accused the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Chief John Odigie Oyegun and the leadership of the party of frustrating efforts by the Federal government to end the reign of terrorism in the country.
The party in a statement through its National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh also tagged APC as a party made up of desperate politicians who support violence in all its ramifications.
Metuh described the stand of the leadership of APC on the statement by Australian, Dr. Stephen Davis as completely lacking in validity, character and intellectual content befitting of a chairman of a national political party.
The PDP spokesperson said, “The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has noted yet another failed image laundering stunt by the APC, wherein its National Chairman, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun cheapened his office and person by attempting to use an unempirical statement by Australian Dr. Stephen Davis, to absolve his party of blames for promoting insurgency in the country.
“Whilst we recognize the right of citizens to hold and canvass opinion in a democratic setting such as guaranteed under the PDP-led administration, we hold, and strongly too that such rights must be properly and respectably exercised.
“Oyegun’s statement rather than exonerate the APC has reinforced and underscored its true identity as a party of desperate politicians supportive of violence and disunity through their utterances and body language, a fact that is already well known to all Nigerians”.
