The ruling party says opposition are merely seeking attention and sympathy The governing Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has denied it is behind the “APC” name crisis that has engulfed opposition parties seeking alliance, disowning a party hatchet man, Ugochinyere Ikenga, named as the instigator of the feud. Multiple media investigations have exposed Mr. Ikenga, a card-carrying member of the PDP, as the individual behind the formation of African Peoples Congress, APC, a rival controversial group seeking to be registered as a political party under the acronym “APC” already adopted by a merger of four opposition parties. The effort is suspected to be aimed at thwarting the new coalition, namely Action Congress of Nigeria, Congress for Progressive Change, All Nigeria Peoples Partyand All Progressive Grand Alliance, seeking toform the All Progressives Congress. A figure well known to similar underhanded deals at the behest of the ruling party, Mr. Ikenga’s scheme this time, to launch the new party, has struck off intense crisis between the opposition parties and the PDP, accused of backing him. In a statement on Saturday, the PDP denied the allegation, a refutation it has repeatedly made. The party said Mr. Ikenga’s past, whichsaw him also lead a campaign against the current chairman of the party, Bamanga Tukur, had rendered him an “estranged fellow” who cannot be an agent of the party. “To the best of our knowledge, no member of the PDP is involved in the formation of any other political organization, neither are we interested in the activities of any other Party,”the party said in a statement signed by spokesperson, Olisa Metuh. “The alleged involvement of one Ugochinyere Imo Ikenga in the formation of the other APC has no bearing whatsoever on us. From our findings, Mr. Ikenga’s recent activities, including his unsavoury attacks and illicit campaign for the dissolution of the the Bamanga Tukur led National Working Committee makes him an estranged fellow and therefore can never be an agent of the PDP in anyway.” The party accused the opposition, led by the ACN, of staging the crisis to gain sympathy and popularity. “We strongly suspect that the current drama on ownership of name may have been contrived by the ACN to attract attention to themselves and earn undue sympathy,” it said. “This plot has played out in the sudden emergence and withdrawal of a third group bearing the acronym APC. The question is, could the merger group be creating a scenario where they would compete within themselves and claim “victory” after overheating the polity with phantom parties? The capacity of our opposition for mischief has never been in doubt. We will not be surprised to find out at the end of the day thatthe merger parties are behind this needless crisis” http://premiumtimesng.com/news/125268-pdp-disowns-hatchet-man-ikenga-says-acn-behind-apc-name-crisis-for-attention.html 2 Likes |

I've always said I'm beginning to seriously suspect fowl play from the hands of ACN. The authority and confidence the buhari/tinubu led APC reacts to these issues as if "nothing dey happen" makes one believe all these are publicity stunts and its sure working for them cos they generate lots of traffic on these. PDP is no saint either, but my pick will be the merger APC at work. 3 Likes |

Funny enough we'll never find new parties with young minds and clear breed of people with a Vision but these sets of old recycled hag of non-thinking men. What's the difference with the PDP and the merger party. Looking thru the Manifesto of the other APC sef, one can't help but even imagine how good their plans are. Btw, we know them all na.

Baba Oyo: assuming you are able to do a good job by convincing all nairalanders to vote tinubuhari what are the chancess that both will win? Since nairaland has only one million people out of over 180 million people and seventy percent of nairalanders are not eligible to vote because they are under 18years old having atleast 300,000 elegible voters on nairaland including those boko boys in the north because i could remember those that voted in the north are ibos with 70 percent high margin compare to the core notherners, so what are the chances that the APC will win? Because i wonder how the magic is gonna happen when 50 percent vote is not even sure for the APC in the west considering the inhuman attitude of some governors like that os lagos state. 6 Likes |

Your life will be, at best, stagnant. You shall generate several billions of dollars in revenue but you offsprings will walk the stressts in rags and eat crimps from you. Darkness shall perpetually be yours and wailing and gnashing of teeth shall not leave your domain. These shall be the lots of those that will thump-print for PDP in 2015 presidential election cos this is the situation Nigeria is in now and that means they will be voting for continuity rather than for a Change as the slogan of the APC connotes. 5 Likes |
