The Peoples Democratic Party has described the ruling All Progressives Congress as a party of “shameless and desperate liars.”

President Muhammadu Buhari, who is generally regarded as being a man of integrity, is a member of the APC.

The party berated the APC for sticking to what it called, “lies and empty denials,” despite the major opposition party’ evidences that the new Director-General of the Department of State Security, Lawal Daura, is an APC member.

The PDP National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh, in a statement on Saturday said the spate of “lies churned out by the APC and its spokesperson, Lai Mohammed, in the desperation to suppress the truth, was not only reprehensible but also “symptomatic of lack of character.”

Metuh said, “When the matter first came up, the APC spokesman hurriedly went on air on RayPower radio, wherein he stated categorically to the nation that he never knew or met ‘the man’, and that ‘the man’ has never had any contact or dealing whatsoever with the APC as a party before his appointment as DSS Director-General.

“When we came up with the newspaper advertorial sponsored by the APC wherein it announced Daura as a member of its campaign Intelligence Committee, a very important position vested on him by virtue of his membership of the party, as well as pictures of him with other members of the committee, Lai Mohammed started singing a new tune. He insulted PDP leaders as hallucinating out of poverty and asked PDP to produce Daura’s membership card and evidence of registration.

“We ask, is the APC demanding that the PDP should invade Daura’s house to get his personal card? Or that we should go to Daura to get the APC ward register? How on earth does the APC spokesperson want us to go and ask a man in charge of arresting and detaining people, who hold views contrary to those of his party and government, to give us his party membership card? How on earth can the PDP request and get the APC membership register in Daura’s ward? Who do Lai Mohammed and the APC think they are fooling? Nigerians?”

The PDP noted that in his effort to defend his party, the APC spokesman either intentionally lied or exhibited crass ignorance by trying to equate the DSS with the National Orientation Agency, the Police Service Commission, or the United States Central Intelligence Agency where a Democrat, Mr. Leon Panetta, was named by President Obama as head.

The PDP insisted that in appointing its member to head the DSS, a very sensitive security agency vested with numerous powers, the APC had annexed the agency as a tool to suppress the opposition and other Nigerians who hold views contrary to that of government, thus preparing the ground for dictatorship and a reign of terror on the people.
