APC waging rebellion against Nigeria, says Lagos PDP



Opeyemi Adesina

The Lagos State chapter of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has described the recent actions of APC as acts of waging rebellion against the Nigerian Nation and it has consequently charged president Goodluck jonathan to resist being blackmailed as partisan but to direct the law enforcement agents to treat the APC actions accordingly.

The party's position is its strong reaction to the directive from the APC to its members in the NASS that they should block all executive bills.

In a statement made available to journalists in Lagos and signed by its Publicity Secretary,  Barrister Taofik Gani, the party opined that APC is sabotaging the nation's development going by the recent open actions of APC, especially the said directive to its National Assembly Members . Such sabotage can be traced to: Boko Haram insurgency, Oil and Gas pipeline vandalising, recurrent strikes in some sectors of the economy, to mention a few.

The party therefore calls on Nigerians to rise up against the APC chauvinism and declaration of war against the Nation's Administration.

" Now we can confirm that the APC has redefined opposition politics to mean rebellion. Theirs is a merger of unpatriotic and desperate politicians who would go to any extent to grasp power. They are Posing enough threat to the cooperate existence of the nigerian Nation.  Their deeds and actions have now betrayed their false claims of being progressives. Nigerians must rise against them now and the security agencies should begin consequential reactions"

The party therefore urged the security agencies, as a matter of urgency to rise up against the deeds and actions capable of causing disaffection and overheat the polity, no matter whose horse is gored.
