Press statement from the APC below...

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has denied the allegation by the PDP that the Director-General of the DSS, Mr. Lawal Daura, is a card-carrying member of the party (APC), calling the accusation absurd and frivolous In a statement issued in Lagos on Thursday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party challenged the PDP to publish any evidence it may have to confirm the allegation, adding: ”After all, it is trite that he who alleges must prove.”

In the absence of that, the PDP must call another press conference to publicly apologize to all Nigerians for engaging in barefaced lies,” it said. APC expressed shock that the PDP has started exhibiting all the symptoms of hallucination so soon after its gravy train derailed, saying it’s obvious that the party has now started hearing voices.

We know that the psyche of the PDP has been badly affected by its loss of power at the centre. Even the party itself has admitted that much. That situation has now been compounded by the fact that the party is broke. It is therefore not a surprise that it is no longer able to think straight. The reality of its new situation is just beginning to dawn on it. ”But we warned the PDP early on that being in opposition is not a walk in the park. We warned that while the party was used to eating its bread with butter on both sides, it will now be lucky to even have bread to eat,” the party said.

It warned the PDP to spend more time in patching its tattered and battered umbrella than acting as a cog in the wheel of progress of the new Administration.

it seems you have not heard the term conflict of interest and to be sincere this man is not qualified and there are way better suited people in dss in civilised clime being in any way affiliated to any political interest group is grounds enough to resign

What is conflict of interest there? That is a cheap excuse and we have very few non partisan people in Nigeria. Above all he is qualified to be,there is nothing like conflict there. The chance he will screw the government agenda for change will be minimized. The chance he understand the party policy towards security will be better implemented.
Lastly is it a crime to be a party man and serve the nation? Its not like he ever took or asked to be a political seat holder or use the current role to propel any political plan of his.Being part of a party is normal and patriotic.

The DSS is part of the Civil Service like other Security Agencies. No member of the service are supposed to be linked with any political party. The loyalty of the DSS boss is to the Nation first because he has constitutional mandate. The position of DSS is not like the NSA or Ministers. It is a shame that Buhari is bent on soiling the reputation of the service in the name of partisanship.
U made very valid points my bro but b4 his recent appointment Daura was a director in d SSS. That means during his time as a member of buharis campaign security committee, he was in d civil service. Y was he allowed 2 continue in d service while openly associating with APC?

Nigeria needs Development right now after one years of Party issues!!! But I sorry for PDP they don't know how to function as opposition party, instead of pointing out developmental failures of APC in Nigeria, they are busy yeilling about party membership of DSS Director General. How does this relate to develop in Nigeria. PDP should give Nigerians space, Party issues should wait until 2019.
. Before nko, did they(pdp) tell you they're after the country's development? Their interest is the country's money, how much they can loot in the shortest possible time. So they can never function as a constructive oposition party.

1. Being a member of APC Security Committee does not mean the man is a card carrying member of APC.

2. And if we assume (a big assumption at that) that Lawal Daura is a card-carrying member of APC, is there any part of our law/constitution that forbids a card-carrying member of a governing party from heading DSS, NSCDC and other similar bodies?

I need documented evidence from anyone please.

And here is another angle to it even in America:

There's a rule stating that a head of any intelligence agency including SSS, defence, NIA etc cannot be party members.

FYI US and Nigeria might have similar constitutions but they are not and never will be the same

You failed to tell us the provisions on the U.S laws on such appointments. In Nigeria, card carrying members of political parties are not allowed to hold such sensitive positions.

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has insisted that the DG of DSS, Mr. Lawal Daura, is not a card-carrying member of the party, saying nothing short of producing Mr. Daura’s membership card or evidence of his membership registration will convince discerning Nigerians that he is indeed a member of the APC as alleged by the PDP.

”While it amounts to rabble-rousing and crass politicking for the PDP to have wrongly accused Mr. Daura of being a member of the APC without a scintilla of credible evidence, the PDP has weakened its argument by using the pictures in which Mr. Daura appeared with the President and the fact that he served in an election committee as evidence of his membership of the APC,” the party said in a statement, Friday, in Lagos by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed.

”Possession of an APC membership card by Mr. Daura or evidence of registration as a party member at his ward, local government or state will be the only conclusive evidence of his membership of the party,” it said. ”Until such an evidence is produced, we are sorry we have to tell the PDP to shut up!”

APC said the PDP is jittery because it is keenly aware of the kind of impunity perpetrated under the federal government it sired from 1999 to 2015.

”PDP has forgotten the saying that he who must come to equity must come with clean hands. When Mr. Mike Okiro chaired the security committee of the PDP campaign in 2011, did that prevent him from being appointed the Chair of the Police Service Commission, which is responsible for issues concerning the welfare, promotion and discipline of all police personnel, in 2013?

”When the Director-General of the National Orientation Agency (NOA), Mr. Mike Omeri, was appointed into the Jonathan election committee in 2015, did he resign his appointment as head of the agency or did he automatically become a card-carrying member of the PDP?
”Did retired Col. Kayode Are not become the DG of the DSS despite being a close confidante of Gen. Obasanjo during his electioneering campaign to become President? Was this not under a PDP Federal Government?

”In any case, even in the world’s most advance democracy, United States, was a card-carrying Democrat, Mr. Leon Panetta, not named as head of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) by President Barack Obama in 2009? Here in Nigeria, the APC-led FG has not even gone that far, and the PDP is blabbing.

”It is an irony that the APC-led Federal Government, which has continued to conduct the affairs of state with a strict adherence to the law, is the one being accused by the immoral, irresponsible and
grossly hypocritical PDP. A party that should cover its face in shame for wasting all of 16 years in the life of our country, a party whose members should show penance by hunkering down has continued to assault the sensibilities of a decent nation. What a shame,” APC said.

Buhari is sentimental in his appointments so far.
This is not speaking well about his integrity
It is what he does now that Nigerians will use to hold him accountable
However, PDP is such an objective opposition
They have been hitting APC at their weak points lately
Unlike APC who makes a lot of noise and wants to bring something out of nothing
