Federal Government Fast Descending Into Tyranny – Senator Abaribe by 14Ebiscoo: 10:01am On Jun 29, 2018
The lawmaker representing Abia south senatorial district, senator Enyinnaya Harcourt Abaribe, Thursday, alleged that the federal government under the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, was fast descending into tyranny in the country.

Abaribe, who is a chieftain of the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, said this while on a courtesy visit to the National headquarters of the party at Wuse, Abuja.

Briefing newsmen, Abaribe said, “This ruling government is fast descending into tyranny knowing that it has disappointed the nation.

“I came to thank the National Working Committee, NWC, of my party and particularly the National chairman, Prince Uche Secondus for their great show of support while I was undergoing my ordeal of dirty politics in the hands of the operatives of the Department of State service, DSS.”

It would be recalled that the lawmaker was recently released from the facility of DSS over issues concerning the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu, whom he stood as his surety.

Kanu was charged with treason by the federal government. But a few weeks to the next adjourned date, a troop of soldiers on a special security assignment in the south east raided the secessionist leader’s country home in Abia State.

Consequently, the whereabouts of Kanu has remained unknown. But the federal government held it on Abaribe to produce the suspect.

When grilled on why he was arrested, Abaribe said he was rather accused of sponsoring terrorism.

In his words, “Everybody knew I only signed a bail bond. But I was accused of sponsoring terrorism. It means Nigerians should be ready and careful because a every little thing you do, they will incriminate you. They will find something to hang on your head.”

When asked whether or not he trusts the credibility of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, for the 2019 general elections, he said, “INEC is on the brink of history, what it will do or not will be a defining moment for the nation.

“I will urge the voters to get their permanent voters Card to vote out the APC come 2019.”

Abaribe, however, recalled that he was treated courteously because some patriotic DSS operatives knew what was happening.

APC and this FG! Their end is near.
If they have a problem with a serving senator serving as surety what was the intention of the court in giving such a condition for bail? Besides was he d only one that signed as surety? Why didn't they arrest others if they were being honest in their jobs?

Everything is now politics of intimidation and harassment. At this rate it is clear that the era of assassinations and forced, unexplained disappearances is already at hand.

Abaribe was arrested for the simple reason of being vocal against this tyrant government or when has it been a crime to stand surety for someone as demanded by the courts .

I hail from d east, grew up in middle belt, schooled in Northeast, lived in northwest, worked in jos and kaduna. Currently run my company in Southwest.
What I can simply tell u is to travel more from where u are, then u will discover that we are damn too diverse in this country and may never always agree.

Abaribe could be arrested by d order of d court on d ground of his absconded surety period and nothing else.

U think those northern govs dancing in Abuja n campaigning for 2nd term, while people are killed recklessly in their domain, are friends of president & Nigeria??

Many of them support d president openly but in private are wishing he's not contesting. Because if PMB is not contesting now, will El-rufai, Massarri n others not be seriously considered for presidency by APC??
Abaribe is a different breed, from another stork. From where he comes? Both elders, father's, brothers, presidents etc are told the truth to their face when they mess-up.
They speak truth to power whether in aso-rock or white house or anywhere.
Yes he's still one of our greedy senator that impoverishes the people he's to represent. But in this case, FG goffed period.

Abaribe is man of the moment. The Pharoah in aso rock who sponsors terrorism clandestinely is naturally powerless to defeat the truth which u stood for.

Mr Abaribe, I have a promise for you. A Pharoah can never defeat a Moses in the battle of supremacy. Bank on my word

as worst as Syria government, those opposing and disagreed with the government are called rebels sponsor by Obama to oust the bad government.
But Putin said, those rebels sponsor by Obama are the Isis of today.

The thugs sponsor by sheriff are the boko haram of today.
The thugs sponsor by saraki and Dino are deadly arm robbers today.

The jobless aggressive lazy idiotic pigs of Biafra abaribe sign bail bond for are now the terrorist today.

Leave matters of international politics because u r not too knowledgeable there.

Asad was using un banned chemical weapons on common Syria citizens probably used as cover by d rebels.

Most nigerian politicians use thugs including APC chiefs ( Amaechi, Ngige, fashola, Ganduge etc).
I don't approve of what saraki is doin. Arming young graduates instead of empowering them with jobs n finance is a great evil. Infact saraki n d likes of him is d reason y Nigeria is like this. But to single him out because he's not singing the praise of the president is a tremendous foolishness on d part of those doing it n supporting same.
What is good for the goose is good for the gander. Same should apply to all.
Read this report of Kano state n APC chiefs some days ago on NL:
https://www.nairaland.com/4586442/armed-youths-mob-governor-dignitaries

Even on d issue of thuggery, the president is not even free. Because there politicians that use n empower thugs n there r others that by there body language encourage them. Pls tell me, who were the thugs killing n raping corppers in 2011, when PMB lost election n was crying on natl television??

On ur comments on Biafra n iPob. I can only laugh at ur ignorance.
