Press statement from the APC

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has denied the allegation by the PDP
that the Director-General of the DSS, Mr. Lawal Daura, is a
card-carrying member of the party (APC), calling the accusation absurd
and frivolous
In a statement issued in Lagos on Thursday by its National Publicity
Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party challenged the PDP to publish
any evidence it may have to confirm the allegation, adding: ”After all,
it is trite that he who alleges must prove.”
In the absence of that, the PDP must call another
press conference to publicly apologize to all Nigerians for engaging in
barefaced lies,” it said.
APC expressed shock that the PDP has started exhibiting all the symptoms
of hallucination so soon after its gravy train derailed, saying it’s
obvious that the party has now started hearing voices.
We know that the psyche of the PDP has been badly affected by its loss
of power at the centre. Even the party itself has admitted that much.
That situation has now been compounded by the fact that the party is
broke. It is therefore not a surprise that it is no longer able to think
straight. The reality of its new situation is just beginning to dawn on
it.
”But we warned the PDP early on that being in opposition is not a walk
in the park. We warned that while the party was used to eating its bread
with butter on both sides, it will now be lucky to even have bread to
eat,” the party said.
It warned the PDP to spend more time in patching its tattered and
battered umbrella than acting as a cog in the wheel of progress of the
new Administration.
