The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, on Monday accused the opposition Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN, of trying to use the press as a subterfuge to hide its support for insurgents and to whittle the current efforts by the Federal Government to end acts of terrorism in the country.

The ruling party, which threw its weight behind President Goodluck Jonathan, said contrary to the claims by the ACN, no part of the Presidential Order proscribing terrorists groups, directly or indirectly violated any provision of the constitution or impinged on the freedom of the press in the country.

The party was reacting to a statement by ACN on Sunday alleging the Presidential Order was aimed at gagging the press.
