The All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused the Jonathan Administration of plotting to hinder a smooth handover of power on May 29.

According to the party’s assessment of the outgoing regime, it is becoming apparent that it will not fully cooperate with the incoming government, despite its public posturing in that regard.

In a statement issued in Abuja yesterday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the APC also described as an act of hostility and a patently-misplaced aggression the unnecessary vituperation against the incoming Buhari administration” by the Jonathan government, ostensibly because of the terms of reference of the Buhari Transition Committee, “but in reality part of an orchestrated plot to sabotage the transition.”

The party, “rejected the continued blackmail by the Jonathan administration as a result of President Jonathan’s concession of defeat,” wondering whether the concession, “gracious as it was,” has now become a shield for all wrong doings.

“We are sick and tired of being blackmailed by the ‘Jonathanians.’ Gen. Buhari won the March 28 Presidential election fair and square, having satisfied both constitutional and other statutory requirements. We have no apology for our victory, and the concession of defeat – while it may have increased the political stock of President Jonathan – has by no means diminished the historic and emphatic victory of Gen.Muhammadu Buhari and the All Progressives Congress,” the party said.

Justifying its allegation  that the Jonathan administration was plotting to hinder a smooth transition of power, the party said while the outgoing government had earlier issued a memo to all ministries, departments and agencies to make sure their handover notes were ready by April 20, the same government has now reversed itself and said the handover notes would not be ready until May 14.

It stated: “With the new date, the Buhari Transition Committee will have little or no time to take a thorough look at the handover notes or seek clarification on knotty issues, effectively handing it (Buhari Transition Committee) a fait accompli as far as the handover notes are concerned.

“This does not augur well for a smooth transition and gives the impression that the outgoing administration is trying to hide something.”

Firefire:
APC and continuous accusation ...

I hope you would be able to accuse yourself by yourself when yourself begin to derail.

nonsensical nonsense.
