PDP Says Police, APC Can’t Stop Mass Defection

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has said that the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Nigeria Police are fighting a lost battle to stop what it Sunday described as the imminent mass defection from the ruling party to the opposition party.

Observing what it described as the “despicable attack” on Ondo Deputy Governor, Agboola Ajayi, by the APC, using the Ondo State Commissioner of Police, Bolaji Salami, the PDP said the action has further spurred Nigerians in their irrevocable determination to abandon the sinking APC and move into the PDP.

“The thoughtless and rude attempt to use the Police to stop the Ondo Deputy Governor from leaving the disorganized APC is symptomatic of the last kicks of a degraded and derelict political party that is now clutching at straws and can only resort to use of compromised security agents as face-saving measure,” the PDP said in a statement issued by its spokesman, Kola Ologbondinyan.

“The APC is unnerved because Nigerians are no longer ready to stomach the deception and lies of 2015 as well as the impunity, political brigandage and the electoral fraud of 2019.

“This is because the situation in the country in the last five years have left no one in doubt that the APC is an ill wind; a soulless mob; a decrepit ship of insatiate pirates, political vampires and ravenous power mongers, who thrive in lies, deception and treasury looting; and whose only legacies are economic ruins, institution of poverty, escalated insecurity, confusion, divisiveness, humongous corruption, dissipated reserves and accumulated debts.

“It is therefore a natural national course for democrats in the APC, who have realized that the sinking party is completely irredeemable, to leave the APC in droves with their supporters.

“It is imperative to state that this development is sparking jubilations in every corners and crannies across our country.

“The PDP therefore cautions the Nigeria Police and other security agencies to note the tide and not allow the APC to use them as pawns to fight an already lost battle against Nigerians.

“Our party charges the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, to immediately insulate his officers and ranks from politics. He should instantly call the Ondo state Commissioner of Police,  Bolaji Salami, to order as his actions are capable of pitching the police against the people and cause a breakdown of law and order.

“Our party reminds IGP Adamu of the inglorious tenure of his predecessor in office, Idris Ibrahim, who allowed himself to be used against the people and how his career ended in ignominy.”

“The PDP therefore calls on the Police IG to immediately rein in his men and be on the side of the people, particularly in the forthcoming Ondo and Edo states governorship elections.”
