APC Threatens To Sue Ogar Over Terrorism, Bribery Allegations by Anasko(m): 3:51pm On Aug 16, 2014
T he All Progressives Congress (APC) on Saturday
said it would sue spokesperson of the States
security Service (SSS), Marilyn Ogar, for
attempting to blame the party for the series of
bomb blasts in the country.
APC stated that by stating on national television
that whenever the opposition party wins the
election, there would be no bomb blasts, but
whenever another party wins the election, there
would be blasts, Ms. Ogar was implying that the
party was responsible for terrorism in Nigeria.
SSS spokesperson, Marilyn Ogar
A press release issued by APC’s National
Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, on
Saturday demanded Ogar’s resignation.
“For the DSS Spokesperson to echo the same
capricious statement that has been made in the
past by the spokesman of the PDP shows that
the agency has dropped its toga of non-
partisanship and has descended into the political
fray.
“If the DSS has any professional ethics, if DSS is
not an arm of the PDP, then the agency must
publicly dissociate itself from the irresponsible
and unfounded allegation by Ogar and disengage
her from the service.
“'Doing that will be the first step in restoring the
credibility, or whatever is left of it, of the DSS. In
the alternative, we challenge the DSS to present
to Nigerians any evidence it may have to link our
party to the spate of bomb blasts in the country.
After all, it is trite that he who alleges must
prove."
The party also commented on Ogar’s allegation
that “a certain political party” believed to be APC
offered the SSS N14 million as a bribe, saying
institutions of state like the SSS must know that
their responsibility is to the nation, and not to any
political party that may be having a transient hold
on power that their loyalty is to the nation, not to
any individual.
“This way, the institutions will keep their integrity
intact and also serve the nation properly.
Irrespective of the government in power,
institutions of state must stay above the fray, in
line with best practices.
“This is a lesson that should not be hard for the
fellows over there at the DSS to understand,
going by the antecedents of their agency.
However, where they choose to play politics with
their professionalism and integrity, they will soon
realise there are working in an agency that is not
worth its salt, one that has lost the respect of the
citizenry."
It saddled the National Assembly with the task of
inviting Ogar's to explain if the alleged N14
million bribe was offered and who offered it

@topic. i shudder to think for a split second that our security forces are fast becoming a mere appendage of PDP. this is too dangerous for our democracy. this is definitely not what we fought for and this must be challenged in the court of law.

I guess we can just conclude that the DSS is the military wing of the PDP.

I pity the likes of Marylin Ogar and co because they all now operate in a We against them environment. This government has invented a new lexicon for partisanship and its a total being with us or u against us.
Its so embarrassing and irresponsible of the DSS spokesman to be talking like Fani Kayode or Olisa Metuh. We need the opposition, we need a choice, we need variety, we need APC, LP, ApGA and co. The country is now in a war where everyone against Jonah is an enemy like we all should be zombie not questioning Jonah's actions and inactions like zombie. This ogar of a woman is a disgrace to professionalism, she is an example of partisanship, and I expect the DSS to distance itself from this PDP security spokesman. What want happen under Jonah ... history writes for the future to judge

This woman talks too much! Forgetting that in too many words, there are bound to be conjectures which do not help the public perception of an institution like DSS. On the other hand, this may be a script to punish some people in APC by labelling them as terrorists. This is the worst disservice that can be done to a nation at a time like. Leaving leprosy to fight skin rashes.

Everything in nigeria is political. No doubt if APC gets to the presidency they will also sick the SSS against their opponents.

Yes APC should go ahead and sue her but don't forget that Alhimodu Sheriff is now in the same party with your upright Nuhu Ribadu. I wonder what you'll take out of that. grin

Even if, and this is a big IF, it is proven that APC is behind these bombings Marilyn Ogar deserves to leave that office. She's made one too many unethical comments and keeps carrying on in an unprofessional manner. Sheesh. Where did they find that woman?
Re: APC Threatens To Sue Ogar Over Terrorism, Bribery Allegations by Nobody: 11:50am On Aug 18, 2014
APC should sue her immediately.
