Read the full text of CPC statement below:
The PDP as the harbinger of Nigeria’s insecurity travails.
The Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) has noted the trajectory of the insecurity travails of the Nigerian nation and the connection with the ruling People’s Democratic Party (PDP). Nigeria’s spy agency, the State Security Services (SSS), recently testified (under oath) that Mr Mohammed Ali Ndume, a PDP senator representing Borno South senatorial district, passed the Telephone number of the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) to the dreaded Boko-Haram sect for the purpose of
influencing the Borno State Election Petition Tribunal for ruling in favour of the PDP.
It would be recalled that in March 2012, Mr Ndume had informed a bewildered Nation that all his activities with the Boko-Haram sect were known to Vice-President Namadi Sambo. On this charge, there was a deafening silence (connoting acquiescence) from the Presidency.
Meanwhile, the PDP continued to lay subterfuge on an unsuspecting citizenry in deliberate spins and large-scale propaganda (in the cyber space and Nation-space) against other Political Parties as the
sponsors of terrorism in Nigeria.
Truly, the chickens are coming home to roost. The lies and falsities of the immediate past have used up their expiry dates. The cases of the murderous termination of the lives of Nigerian youths and destruction of Christian worship sanctuaries, as a concealment strategy (in infamy) of the electoral heist in Northern Nigeria, shall continue to be the Achilles’ heels of this PDP-led regime. Characteristically, the PDP, being awash with slush funds for massive propaganda, was the first to lay the blame of the post-election violence on other parties.
As a Party, we believe the latest revelations have thrown up the widely held notion that Nigerian Judiciary is corruptible and malleable to the anti-democratic dictates of the PDP-led Executive. It
is also very deducible that the Boko-Haram insurgency is mainly actuated for achieving political ends rather than the much touted religious suzerainty. With about one trillion naira appropriated for
tackling insecurity in 2012 budget, this clearly explains why security challenges would remain as long as PDP is in power because more justifications would continue to be made for more slush funds!
Finally, as a Party, we hereby state unequivocally that the PDP remains the harbinger of the Nation’s security travails as a way to foster the vain-glorious desire to rule Nigeria in perpetuity. We hereby call on the Nigerian people to reject the over-used propaganda of the PDP-led regime to deflect the just demand of the Nigerian people for a safer, tranquil and prosperous polity.
God bless Nigeria.
Rotimi Fashakin (Engr).
National Publicity Secretary, CPC.
