DSS DG not our card-carrying member ---- APC
(Nigeria) The All Progressives Congress, APC, has denied the
allegation by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP that the Director-General of
the Department of State Security, DSS, Mr. Lawal Daura, is a card-carrying
member of the APC, calling the accusation absurd and frivolous.
APC in a statement on Thursday by its National Publicity
Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, in Lagos, 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
it,'' 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.
