  • NEWS: IG of Police, a stooge of PDP, says Majority Leader


    ​

    The Majority Leader of the Edo state House of Assembly and House of Representatives candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Etsako Federal Constituency, Philip Shaibu, has castigated the Inspector General of Police, Suleiman Abba, over his comment that Nigerians should cast their votes and leave the polling units.

    Shaibu who described the IGP as a stooge of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), urged him to resign his position and join politics.

    According to him, Abba’s statement and all his body languages are all indications that the he is allegedly working with “enemies of democracy to rig the elections”.

    “The Inspector General of Police should leave politics alone and face his work as the head of the police, particularly catering for the welfare of the rank and file of the police. IG should make sure that the police get their pension as at when due. IG should ensure welfare of police officers so that policemen and women can buy boots and uniforms. He should leave politics alone,” he said.

    He added that: “If he wants to be a politician he should resign as IGP and come and face election. Nigerians should disregard him because he is playing the script of President Goodluck Jonathan and the PDP. Nigerians should remain at the polling units after voting, everybody should be peaceful and ensure that their votes count before they go home. They should remain at their polling unit after voting, those that have the energy must ensure that they monitor their votes to the collation centers.

    “We expected the IGP to face the very worrisome issue of promotion of police officers, uniforms of police officers which are not given to them among other issues. If he wishes to be a politician, he should resign instead of turning Nigeria’s police force to PDP police Force. But I want to put him on notice that Nigerians will resist him. Nigerians will stand behind the police that is sincere for a free and fair election not the IGP that is Jonathan’s IGP.

    “What we have in the constitution is Nigerian Police force not PDP Police force. Nigeria is greater than the IG, he cannot divide Nigeria. Nigerians should resist him and support the progressive police force and not Jonathan’s police. The international community should watch the IGP closely because it is obvious that he is the chairman of the President Jonathan’s security wing in this campaign.

    The lawmaker noted that the utterances of the IGP since the beginning of preparation towards this election has been that of bias, adding that, it shows that he is not fit to be a police chief. He therefore said he should either respect himself and stay away from partisan politics or “resign and become a PDP member so that he will meet us in the field.”

  • NEWS: PDP accuses Rivers APC of buying PVCs for N10,000 each


    ​

    The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Rivers State chapter, says it has received several reports from the 23 local government areas of the state that the All Progressives Congress, APC, has been buying Permanent Voter’s Cards (PVCs) for 10,000 each.

    According to the party, the development was a ploy to disenfranchise the primary owners in the March 28 and April 11 general elections.

    The party in a statement by the state chapter said it was appalled that the leadership of the APC had engaged its members to procure the INEC-issued PVCs.

    “This portends grave danger to the nation’s democracy. It also jeopardises the efforts of the government and the Commission in the quest for free and fair elections,” it said.

  • NEWS: Jonathan, PDP plotting to link fake Shekau with opposition – APC Campaign


    ​

    The All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Organisation has alerted Nigerians to alleged desperate plot of the President Goodluck Jonathan government and his party, the Peoples Democratic Party, to unleash a fake leader of Boko Haram, Abubakar Shekau, on the opposition party.he APCPCO, however, urged Nigerians not to be deceived by the dubious, wicked and desperate plans of the drowning PDP and its candidate, President Goodluck Jonathan, to win the presidential election.

    A statement signed by Mallam Garba Shehu, the Director of Media and Publicity of the APC Presidential Campaign Organisation, said that any purported “capture” of Shekau will conflict with three previous claims by the Federal Government and its operatives that the insurgent leader had been killed.

    “We need to alert Nigerians that President Jonathan and the PDP have concluded plans to release the fake Shekau as a final campaign gimmick to gain cheap votes and inadvertently subvert the will of Nigerians in the 28th of March 2015 Presidential election.

    “The drowning PDP and its presidential candidate who are looking for straws to hold unto will then claim to have arrested the leader of Boko Haram, who would be paraded before the media and induced to mention the names of some notable members of the opposition, APC including our presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari as the sponsors of their murderous insurgency.”

    Shehu said it was shocking that the President and his party would resort to cheap and wicked blackmail against the opposition just to remain in office.

    He said: “No evil plan fashioned by the PDP and its ruinous ruling government against the electoral wishes of the Nigerian people will prosper, because the people of Nigeria have resolved on their own accord to vote for change in 2015.

    “This Party Deceiving People has wasted 16 precious years of the nation’s democratic life and therefore Nigerian people will not hesitate to give them a red card in next weekend’s election. So, manufacturing a Shekau whom they claimed to have killed three times previously will not help them in any way”

  • NEWS: APC sponsoring those calling for Gani Adams’ resignation – OPC Read full story here:


    ​

      The leadership of Oodua Peoples Congress, OPC, on Saturday accused some “expelled members” of the party of working for the All Progressives Congress, APC. In a statement made available to Daily Post by Hakeem Ologunro, OPC National Publicity Secretary, he said the APC was yet to come to terms that the group had openly declared support for the re-election of President Goodluck Jonathan.

       
     According to him, the unflinching support given to the Jonathan-led government by its founder, Dr Fredrick Fasheun and National Coordinator was worrisome to the opposition party. Ologunro noted that “yet again, the hawks are beginning to display their desperation as the election draws nearer”. According to him, under the guise of a group, purportedly belonging to the OPC, a former member, one Monsuru Akande, addressed a press conference calling for the resignation of Otunba Gani Adams as leader of the OPC. Continuing he said, “Funny enough, Monsuru Akande signed the so-called press release as the Welfare Chairman of the OPC.
      
       But the man holding this position since 2007 after Monsuru was sacked had been Comrade Oluwole Iyaromi. “But for the benefit of the public, I would like to explain some points here. Monsuru Akande was expelled from the Congress for anti – party activities in 2007. Soon after his expulsion, Monsuru became a land grabber and thug to one Owo- Eye and Sons, an Estate Agent locates in Sango area of Ogun State. “Let the public ask Monsuru why he was sacked from the group, which of the zone of the Congress does he belong to and did he and his fellow rabble rousers demand the sum of 10 million from Otunba Gani Adams before he was eased out of the Congress in 2007? “It is however surprising that Monsuru and his group are coming out shortly after our protest. 

       We would rather advise them and their pay masters to be ready to bear the consequences of their actions. “We are not unaware that the APC Is behind the activities of these faceless groups in their desire to cause disaffection among our members. But we are sure that they will fail in every step of the way. “A similar scenario played out in Ekiti State, where a faceless group claimed it belongs to the OPC. But soon after their purported press statement, that state secretary called to dissociate himself from the statement. “We would expect more of such statements from these people until after the election. But let’s tell Nigerians now that whoever deals with these people does so at his or her own risk”

  • NEWS: Jonathan has ordered EFCC to immediately arrest Tinubu, others – APC

    ​

    The All Progressives Congress, APC, has raised the alarm over plan by the Jonathan-led federal government and the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to arrest its national leader, Bola Tinubu and other chieftains of the party by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, ahead of next Saturday’s election.
    APC National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, on Saturday said the federal government also planned to freeze the accounts of companies, individuals and organisations believed to be financing the party so as to cripple its activities.
    “Without mincing words, we are aware that a RED ALERT has been sent to the EFCC to arrest the National Leader of our party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on trumped-up charges anytime from now,” he said.
    “In addition, anyone who is suspected of being a financier of the APC is to be arrested, all in efforts to decapitate the main opposition party which is undoubtedly cruising to victory in the forthcoming elections.
    “And as part of the offensive against the APC in the days ahead, there is a plan to freeze the accounts of companies, individuals and organisations believed to be financing the party, with the ultimate objective of crippling the party so it won’t be able to sustain its activities, like paying its agents on Election Day and other logistics.
    “I am sure the question playing on your lips are: Why would anyone want to arrest APC leaders at this time? What have they done to warrant their arrest? Will there still be a level playing ground for the elections if the main opposition party is decimated just days to the polls?
    “Well, we can tell you that this planned arrest is orchestrated by the same people who have sponsored a series of protests to the EFCC, on the basis of the same documentary against Asiwaju which they also masterminded. It may sound like an intrigue, but that is exactly what it is”.
