The All Progressives Congress, APC, has reacted to the statement made by the spokesperson of the Department of State Security – DSS, on the conduct of Osun governorship election.

The party, in a press release on Thursday by its Publicity Secretary, Lai Mohammed said Ms Ogar’s statements were unprofessional and irresponsible and represents the opinion of the PDP.

Mohammed wondered why the DSS Spokesperson would describe his movement on the night he was arrested in Osogbo as “loitering’‘ when as a citizen of Nigeria, he has the freedom to move around.

The party went further to ask why the DSS did not arrest some other key PDP chieftains who were in Osun and are not indigenes of the state.

It described as tissue of lies the allegation by Ms. Ogar that the party tried to bribe the DSS with 14 million Naira before the Osun election, wondering why the DSS did not arrest the official who offered the alleged bribe.

“Apparently, Ms. Ogar has never head of a ‘sting operation’ that is widely used by security agencies to catch a person who is committing a crime. The allegation by Ms. Ogar would have been sweet in her mouth had the DSS mounted a sting operation to catch whoever was offering the alleged bribe, and then prosecute him or her,” the party said, calling the allegation cheap blackmail by a conspiratorial organization.

Commenting on the deployment of security for election, Mohammed said that “ election is not war, but a celebration of democracy, hence DSS agents should drop their hoods and hide away their menacing guns when next they are posted to police an election anywhere in the country”.

”Was it not publicly announced that the APC was moving its headquarters to Osun to give support for Gov. Rauf Aregbesola? Why didn’t Ms. Ogar question the presence of President Goodluck Jonathan or Vice President Namadi Sambo in Osun when they came too, if she was being fair? It is sad that Ms. Ogar has turned herself to the spokesperson of the PDP by echoing what that party has said on the Osun election. This is unprofessional and irresponsible,” the apc said.

APC said by spearheading the mass arrest of its leaders and members in Osun before and during the August 9th governorship election in the state, and by preventing the rally planned by the NLC in support of Gov. Aregbesola from holding, the DSS has decided to pitch its tent with the PDP instead of staying neutral.

The party said the questions to ask Ms. Ogar are: ”How many PDP leaders were arrested in Osun? If the rally by the NLC had been planned in support of the PDP candidate, Senator Iyiola Omisore, would the DSS have aborted it? Why must the DSS send hooded gunmen to police an election that is a civic matter? Does Ms.Ogar bother to read and understand the Nigerian constitution to know the rights of the citizens?”

APC said it is important to educate the likes of Ogar, and indeed the entire DSS, that election is not war, but a celebration of democracy, hence DSS agents should drop their hoods and hide away their menacing guns when next they are posted to police an election anywhere in the country.

Is the "rig and roast" declaration made by the leader of APC, Tinubu, also a "celebration of democracy"?

The day in question was not an ordinary day. It was on election day or eve of election day. Consequently, security was on high alert to neutralize ANY potential threat.

security was on high alert but movement was not restricted. why was he arrested like a criminal when nothing incriminating was found on him? how about fayemi's campaign manager that was arrested in his house in Ekiti? you PDP apologists will always defend evil. it's what you are paid for

It is acutely depressing seeing how these people keep messing up this country.

Most of them haven't the faintest idea what their job descriptions are. So depressing.

Good to see you use good part of your time for other things more important than Nairaland.


How did you arrive at 0.048%?

I have never observed the membership growth rate, but from the period it reached up to a million members to now, there is an average of about 500 registered members/ day which makes your figure moderate.

But hope you ll take into consideration the at which members open multiple accounts.

Yea, that was taken into account, monitored it for 7days; from 12:40pm on 7th— 14th August @12:40pm.
And about 40% of this population have atleast three monickers

You are a fool and a dishonest individual. Abuse of power "Security" that only targeted APC members and allowed the likes of Andy Ubah, Adesiyan, Obanikoro et al total 'freedom of the city'? What I find absurd is that it is a morally bankrupt chap like you who is effectively the arrowhead of team GEJ on Nairaland. Then again it makes sense that a totally failed leader will only be supported by unprincipled hacks like you.

Marylin Ogargarrrr working for aso rock police since she started warming GEJ's bed since 1870!

Does that mean the actual growth rate will be less that 0.048%?



Btw:So, you have been spying on Nairalanders?
