APC, PDP differ on Nigeria's number one enemy

Date: 2014-07-11

National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Alhaji Lai Mohammed yesterday accused President Goodluck Jonathan of subverting the nation's democracy.

Lai who spoke in his hometown of Oro, Irepodun Local Government Area of Kwara State during the 8th Lai Mohammed annual Ramadan lecture, 'spanked' the President for allegedly deploying soldiers to fight political opponents, saying the President has become the number one enemy of democracy.

He said presidency's "constitutional breaches" include the massive deployment of soldiers during the Ekiti election, prevention of APC governors from attending Fayemi's rally in Ekiti, among others.

The APC spokesman said instead of deploying soldiers to free the kidnapped Chibok school girls in Bornu state, the President was using the military to intimidate political opponents, citing cases of Edo and Rivers states where he said the President was supporting minority PDP lawmakers. The PDP however described the statement as a desperate effusion of "noise and fury."

A statement by the national publicity secretary of the PDP, Chief Olisa Metuh said that it is on record that no administration in the history of Nigeria achieved in its first three years, what President Jonathan has far achieved despite security challenges.

He said, "In the past three years , the Jonathan administration has squarely tackled massive infrastructural development with thousands of kilometers of federal roads and bridges either constructed, reconstructed or rehabilitated while the long forgotten rail system is now steaming back to life with modern coaches even as expansion of network is on-going."
