PDP dares APC on Boko Haram negotiator’s revelation
The Peoples Democratic Party has called on the national leadership of
the opposition party, the All Progressives Congress, to speak about
other issues revealed by the Australian negotiator, Dr. Stephen Davis, on the activities of Boko Haram in the country.
The ruling party, in a statement issued by its National Publicity
Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh, in Abuja on Wednesday, was reacting to the
statement made by the National Chairman of the APC, Chief John
Odigie-Oyegun, in which he called on the Federal Government to punish
those revealed by the negotiator as the sponsors of Boko Haram.
Metuh alleged that it was also wrong for the APC to exonerate itself from “the blames of promoting insurgency in the country.”
He said that Oyegun’s statement rather than exonerate the APC had
further 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 he said was already well known
to Nigerians.
Metuh said, “If not to achieve the self-serving
purpose of exonerating the APC, why would Oyegun’s statement choose to
be silent on the revelation by Davis that some people opposed to
President Goodluck Jonathan used their connections to Boko Haram to
frustrate his efforts?
“We also wonder why the APC has chosen
to ignore some of the revealing aspects of Davis’ interview concerning
Boko Haram’s funding and sponsorship. Is it because they are not
favourable to them?”
He alleged that Oyegun’s statement was a
decoy to frustrate genuine efforts at finding solution to the security
challenges facing the nation to the advantage of the APC.
Metuh
alleged that the same APC fought against moves by the British
Parliament to investigate its involvement with terrorist elements as
well as to divert attention from the opposition party meetings outside
the country in its bid to promote insurgency in Nigeria.
He
restated his party’s earlier stand in which it referred to the APC as a
party with a Janjaweed ideology, alleging further that it had been
promoting insurgency and terrorism through the actions and utterances of
its leaders.
