APC Is Not A Muslim Party – Olisa Metuh by ganye1: 6:57am On Dec 23, 2014
The National Publicity Secretary of the ruling Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Olisa Metuh, has spoken out to
address insinuations that he referred to the opposition All
Progressives Congress as a Muslim party.
According to Metuh, Islam is a religion of peace and it is unfair
to equate it with the APC.
“It is important to keep the records straight. I never labelled
APC ‘Muslim Brotherhood of Nigeria.’ I made a statement and I
was drawing the attention of people to what some northerners
have said. That was an advice. Then supporter of APC has nothing to
do with religion. I referred to the opposition ideology as being
supporter of APC, that it has something to do with supporter of APC being
the meaning of anarchy and chaos. supporter of APC is an
association. What they want to put in force is anarchy, chaos
and civil unrest,” he said.
“So, the idea the opposition has is completely anarchy and
chaos. It is an ideology that there will be parallel government,
that they will fight if they lose election. So, that is a supporter of APC
ideology of no respect for law and order, that is what the APC
has personified in their statements and utterances, they want
chaos in our polity and that is why we call them supporter of APC. It
has absolutely nothing to do with religion. For me, I know that
some people in this world, their ambition is to have money,
some is to have children, some is to have mansions, then there
are some people that their ambition is just to worship their God
and you cannot question that. We do not think that the APC is a
Muslim party.
“Islam itself is a religion of peace, it is a religion that respects
law and order, a religion that wants things to be done
appropriately and it has respect for constituted authority. So,
you cannot equate it with a party that has no respect for
constituted authority. No, the APC is not a Muslim party. What
they have is a band of anarchy, whether they are from the
North-east or west, they want to subvert our democracy and
we will not allow that,” he added.
In a recent parley with newsmen, Metuh also spoke on his
party’s chances in APC-controlled Lagos, Kano and Rivers
states in the coming general elections.
“The truth is that we are going to win the elections, that I can
assure you. There is no way the people in these states will not
vote for President Goodluck Jonathan,” he said.
“In Kano State, we are going to have difficulty, but we do hope
that we will struggle to control the state, we will struggle for
supremacy.
“We are in control of Rivers.
“In Lagos, we will like to believe that now is the time that the
people are yearning for change. There is multiplication of
taxation in Lagos. People are crying under that yoke that they
need a change from. So, we are going to win Lagos as well by
God’s grace,” Metuh stated.
On the issue of defection of some former principal officers of
the party to the opposition, Metuh said:
“I must be honest with you, mistakes were made. Some of
them were preventable. I believe the issue of Gemade was
preventable, because I know, being the longest serving
member of this party at the national executive level, I can tell
you that Barnabas Gemade is one of the best national
chairmen we had in the history of our party.
“We made some mistakes and we have learnt some lessons.
But I know that wherever Gemade is, whatever he is doing, he
is PDP 100 percent. He thinks about PDP, his mind is PDP and
he will never leave PDP. Unlike some people who have left us
and criticised us, I can assure you that Gemade and Samuel
Ortom can never ever abuse the leadership of PDP. May be it
has to do with their personal interests, that is why they left, but
in terms of ideology, belief of the party, they cannot go against
it. Gemade is a democrat. I asked him and he said he was not
leaving but that he is not happy, so I believe that by and large,
mistakes were made along the line.”

when you make decisions don't react or speak according to your first dimensional thoughts but according to your second dimensional thoughts.

the formal is only emotional and it could only come back to hunt you but the later is well thought and could save life.

but Olisa, seems you followed the formal and it now seems to hunting you!

Indeed. This is only coming after the revelation that the North is not at all interested in hearing the name GEJ to the extent that even PDP politicians in the North have now swung behind Buhari. For 4 years the myopic Southerners in the PDP (like Akpabio and the foolishly verbose Metuh) hijacked the PDP and turned it into a "Christian Party" while they went for open and brazen demonization of the APC as the "Islamic Janja**** Party". Come election time it is now obvious to all the damage these set of myopic dimwits have done to the candidacy of GEJ. They are now deceitfully trying to retrace their steps. Too late. Nigerians are now determined to vote for change they know the "Islamic Party" can deliver.
