N-Delta leaders slam Bayelsa APC factional chairman
(Nigeria) Niger Delta leaders on Sunday warned former
factional chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Bayelsa State,
Richard Kpodo against provocative statements, reminding the people of the state to be
careful of those working for the interest of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
The leaders also accused Kpodo and his associates of
hatching evil motives aimed at dividing APC, destroying the solidarity and
possibly provoking crises in the party.
In a statement by the Director of Communications of the
Niger Delta People’s Movement, Mrs. Ibifuro Tatua, the leaders described as
irresponsible the campaign of calumny by Kpodo.
The leaders who praised Chief John Odigie-Oyegun for his
honesty and bravery in the management of the party as well as his inclusive
strategy, advised the national chairman of the party and former governor of
Bayelsa State, Chief Timipre Sylva to look away from Kpodo and his friends and
get on with important matters.
“In any system, there are always destroyers. Oyegun and
Sylva should look away from these destroyers. Kpodo and his co - travelers are
just executing a carefully designed plan to discredit Sylva and destabilize the
party to further their selfish ends” the leaders said.
On calls to oppose the leadership of Sylva in the state, the
leaders not only described Kpodo’s views as a display of outright malice and
envy against Sylva but said Kpodo and his associates do not mean well for the
party and the state.
“This is callous.
This is certainly a provocative act. Bayelsans must condemn the evil
machinations of Kpodo, his highly contagious anointing to lie and the satanic
grace to mislead the people”.
The leaders also thanked the people for the confidence
reposed on Sylva.
“We thank the good and peace loving people of Bayelsa State
who have refused to be hoodwinked by the tissues of lies and propaganda being
woven and dished out by desperate politicians and their sponsors” the statement
said.
“Bayelsans are sick and tired of leaders whose only interest
in politics is their pockets and that of their crooked and fraudulent clique at
the expense of the masses,” the statement added.
