The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the South-West has insisted that the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) should first ask the Speaker of Lagos State House of Assembly, Mr. Adeyemi Ikuforiji and the House of Representatives Minority Leader, Mr. Femi Gbajabiamila to resign before the party can be taken seriously on its stand on corruption.
The PDP said it was ridiculous that the ACN could claim that Ikuforiji, cannot be asked to resign while at the same clamouring for the sack of Dr. Doyin Okupe, senior special assistant to President Goodluck Jonathan over yet-to-be substantiated report of his investigation by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over alleged contract scam.
PDP Zonal Publicity Secretary, Hon. Kayode Babade said in a statement issued in Ibadan today, that if anyone must be sacked or asked to resign from office, they are the Lagos Speaker, and the ACN Leader in the House of Representatives.
The PDP said; “While we will not defend anyone for committing crime, but we must state that we will no longer sit back and allow these gang of hypocrites in the ACN to harass, blackmail or intimidate our members. “With the zeal and vigour they have been approaching this issue of Dr Okupe, it is obvious that there are more to it than meet the eyes and what we can conclude is that some people are afraid of the man Dr Doyin Okupe and are out to distract him. The PDP said what has the former Benue State Governor, Senator George Akume, who is now the ACN Leader in the senate done since 2007 that he left office on the alleged contract scam involving Dr. Okupe? Saying his raising the matter now puts a lot of question marks on the claim.

Since they are not PDP members(Gbajabiamila and the Lagos State speaker) their fraudulent acts is acceptable.Is only PDP members that are corrupt,but we have suddenly forgotten that George Akume a former PDP member(now ACN) ran to Senate inorder to prevent EFCC from knocking on his door to come and give account of his stewardship as the Governor of benue state..... Please let put party interest behind us and do the right thing,,,before ACN should ask PDP members to vacate office as a result of fraudulent act(s),ACN should first get rid of all the thieves in it camp,most of them that ran from PDP to ACN simply because they could not achieve their aim in PDP,in the likes of Dino Melaye and the rest and PDP should also make her ways straight........Enough of all these tricks by self-centered/inconsistent politicians whether in PDP or in opposition without any ideology than to amass wealth/riches to themselves through public offices,,haba!!!!!!!!

o boy you forgot this picture

That's a reasonable demand. In addition, Tinubu should also resign on the weight of his past criminality!
He who come to equity must come with clean hands.

Party war in progress. Both parties are trying to shield corruption by protecting their "Own". If both parties are committed to the eradication of corruption, they should sack both culprits and subject them to prosecution, rather than playing this hide and seek game

both should resign

So they now barter and compares their criminals?

ACN: Okupe must go, he is a criminal.

PDP: He is going nowhere, your criminals are bigger criminals than our criminals.

ACN: How can you say that when one of your grand criminal,s Bode George just came out of Kirikiri and our grand Tinubu, only warmed the court bench?

PDP: Okay, let me think, I knew you must have some criminals hiding in your cupboard.

ACN: While your messing your brain thinking, I will give you another name-Ibori.

PDP: Damn! I didn't see that one coming. OK! What about Atiku? He was your member. OBJ indicted him!

ACN: You fool! Atiku was only a member of AC and not ACN.

PDP: And whats the difference?

ACN: AC is a reincarnation of AG, UP and AC, which means, strictly western as it always comes with 2 alphabets, its now strictly Nigerian i.e 3 alphabets, moreover, Atiku has returned to where he belonged.

PDP: And where does he belong?

ACN: To the den of criminals and killers-PDP

PDP: You are not going to win this argument, I am sending for Okupe and Abati. Reno Omokri is already on his way.

ACN: Alright then! Lai Mohammed will be my backup in that case.

@Eziachi, good one, they are playing on our intelligence

Cyprealo: @Eziachi, good one, they are playing on our intelligence

They are really indeed courtesy of Nigerians that allowed them.
