ogochukwu247:
READ PRESS RELEASE BELOW...

Gentlemen of the press, We have called you up this Sunday afternoon to address you and through you alert all Nigerians and indeed the international community of a grievous development that constitutes a major threat to our democracy and lives as individuals.

As we address you today, our democracy is facing a serious danger. We are at the verge of a quick slide into dictatorship and the personal freedom entrenched in the polity in the last 16 years by the PDP is about to be obliterated.

We wish to alert all Nigerians and the international community that there is indeed a clear and present danger of threat to the lives of key opposition leaders in Nigeria.

In the last few weeks, key PDP members have become an endangered group for playing their opposition role in providing constructive criticisms to the ruling party in their apparent lack of capacity to get organized and form a government; their interference in the activities of the National Assembly and the demand for the implementation of their campaign promises to Nigerians.

As we address you today, some key leaders of our party have been under threat since the emergence of the leadership of the National Assembly which did not go the way of the leadership of the APC, particularly, the election of PDP’s Senator Ike Ekweremadu as Deputy Senate President.
The leadership of the PDP has been made aware of various threats to life and other forms of intimidation and blackmail against Senator Ekweremadu from the APC.

As you may know, the APC leaders have not hidden their bitterness and resentment towards Senator Ekweremadu whose offense is the privilege of being elected by his colleagues (APC and PDP senators alike) as Deputy Senate President in line with the Standing Rules of the Senate and the provisions of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Since President Muhammadu Buhari’s statement that Senator Ekweremadu’s election was ‘unacceptable’ to his party, the Deputy Senate President, who can only be removed by the Senate has come under threats and intense pressure from APC leaders to resign and allow a senator from the ruling party to take his position.

However, having failed to get him to resign, the APC has now engaged in heinous plots to force him out of office, a design, which totally negates the independence of the legislature and the spirit and letters of the constitution of Nigeria.

Apparently to ensure that the agenda is given an official stamp, the Inspector General of Police, acting on instructions has invited the Deputy Senate President with a view to arresting him over phantom charges as a build up to incarcerate him, create a vacuum in the Senate and pave way for the imposition of APC preferred senator to take over his position.

“We are aware that some APC senators opposed to the emerge of Senators Bukola Saraki and Ike Ekweremadu as Senate President and Deputy Senate President respectively met last week and concocted a petition accusing the Deputy Senate President of altering the Senate Rules on the process of election of the Presiding Officers, upon which the police via a letter dated July 1, 2015 and signed by the Deputy Inspector General in charge of criminal investigation at the Force Headquarters has invited him to appeartomorrow, Monday, July 6, 2015where he will be detained and put under pressure.

Apart from the fact that the Nigerian Constitution clearly guarantees the two chambers of the National Assembly the powers to regulate their proceedings without external interferences, we note that the petition by this group of senators who enjoy the sympathy of some APC leaders lacks merit as Senator Ekweremadu or any other senator-elect prior to the inauguration of the Senate and the election of presiding officers, could not have been involved in the process of producing the 2015 Standing Rules of the Senate which was strictly done by the bureaucracy under the Clerk to the National Assembly.

Furthermore, Senator Ekweremadu was not in any way involved in the process other than being nominated for the position of the Deputy Senate President and could not have been privy to the secret ballot procedure adopted by the National Assembly bureaucracy, which has been widely adjudged as transparent and credible.

Also, apart from plans to use security apparatus against the Deputy Senate President, we have information that there are instructions to certain officials at the now National Electoral Commission to alter some electoral documents and records in order to create the impression that Senator Ekweremadu did not file proper documents for the general elections to eventually pave way for his removal.

In line with the above plot, the APC has been having secret meetings with some judges and lawyers to procure injunctions to prevent Senator Ekweremadu from playing his role as the Deputy Senate President.

We are also aware that part of the plot is a conspiracy to tarnish Senator Ekweremadu’s image and open him to public ridicule. Last Monday, some APC leaders met in Abuja to perfect a plot to blackmail the Deputy Senate President by planting outlandish publications against him in the media.

The PDP hereby states and in very clear terms too that the government and APC leaders should be held responsible should any harm come upon the Deputy Senate President or any of our party leaders for that matter. We state this because information available to us indicates that there are also plans to compromise security around the Deputy Senate President to make him vulnerable and open for sponsored violent attacks.

We do hope that the era of political assassination is not about to return to Nigeria and that our nation will not descent into a draconian regime where a strike force is created to hunt key opposition figures.

In this wise, we call on our citizens to note that the PDP will not consider it a mere coincidence if our key leaders suddenly become victims of terror attacks or are suddenly killed by armed robbers. This is especially as we are aware that the APC has even gone to the ridiculous extent of trailing key PDP leaders and bugging their telephone lines.

This is in addition to hiring some disgruntled PDP members, to use the guise of an ethnic solidarity to create some disturbances, distractions and disruption of the smooth operations of our party. The APC is indeed in the process of elevating violence, ethnic and sectional interests once more in our democracy and we call on patriotic Nigerians across the country to resist this dangerous design.

We are aware that President Buhari, who had earlier restated his willingness to work with anybody elected by the legislature, has been put under intense pressure resulting in his statement on the emergence of Senator Ike Ekweremadu, which is now being misconstrued by some of his overzealous party members and security officials. We therefore urge the President to bear in mind that the onus therefore lies on him to moderate the political temperature of the country by calling his overbearing party members and security officials to order.

In Nigeria, the constitution empowers each chamber of the National Assembly to choose its leadership without external interferences. Senators in their wisdom and in exercise of that power, in line with the provisions of their Standing Rules chose Senators Saraki and Ekweremadu to lead them and the constitution is clear on the process for their removal from office.

The APC should not in any way take our civility, decency and commitment to national peace and stability for granted. They should rather be thankful to PDP senators, who in their maturity and discipline stuck to the decision of our party to support Senator Saraki and restrained themselves from using their majority status on the day of Senate inauguration to take over the positions of the Senate President and that of Deputy Senate President, while APC senators were busy attending their party meeting at the International Conference Center (ICC).

APC leaders must understand that no amount of threats, intimidation and blackmail will make the Deputy Senate President to abandon the mandate freely given to him by the Senate, or compel the PDP to abdicate its responsibility as an opposition party, a role we will continue to play with every sense of restrain, civility, maturity and patriotism.

On this note, we urge all our citizens, the civil society and indeed the international community to note the development in Nigeria; the onslaught against the opposition; the eroding of personal freedom, threats to lives, disruption of the legislative activities of the National Assembly, undermining of the independence of our electoral body and other dangerous signal that the nation may be on a slide to totalitarianism.

As a party that sustained and nurtured democracy in the last 16 years, the PDP cannot fold its hands and watch but will stand with all patriots in resisting this attempt to transform our country from a democratic state where the freedom of citizens to hold personal opinions and aspirations are guaranteed, to a nation where despotism, fear, clamp down on opposition and of course the media will be the order of the day.
Thank you
Chief Olisa Metuh

AM not their sympatizer, but I strongly believe in having oppositions cos it always stared one to be productive.
but it seems APC are a kind of a bloody fraternity that is hell bent on destroying instead of building.


[size=14pt]JUst tired of this country![/size]

You mean you voted for CHANGE...
You can lie oh!....
Hypocrite....

Nigerians that want change know what it means..

When Buhari starts probing, it's going to be PDP that will be most hit because they were in charge for 16 years. they are the ones who have to answer questions. most states were ruled by PDP so PDP will still suffer! Simple!!

I just laugh at people ready to defend PDP at all cost though. Like has Nigerian been better than 16 years ago? lmao!!!

PDP MECHIONU PLEASE!

metuh! Try and call ur family that benefitted from PDP misrule to come to ur rescue

[size=14pt]I hope August 27 is not reloading?! Let the reader read with wisdom
... Buhari will never learn. Same thing replaying. This was why he was removed in 1985. Same high handedness, nepotism, tribalism, disregard for rule of law, etc. I wish him success. [/size]

Cry me a river... Plzzzz stop exaggerating tins joor... This is politics play it and leave buhari out of it.. Let sen ike defend himself

bamidele029:
DSS never invade your office like you did to APC you are crying, hiss

PDP can cry for all i care, APC should give it to them the way they did to APC in the past..........my main disposition is for APC to fulfill the promises made to Nigerians and PDP not playing opposition to the realization of those promises. If it involves Senator Ekwuermadu removal am in support 100%.

tundamartin:
This Olisa Metuh is known for dramatics and exaggeration or overstating things.

Doesn't PDP, as main opposition party, appear bereft and inept calling on international community to intervene in Nigeria's domestic police enquiry?

Is it that Ekweremadu can't defend himself or speak for himself that a matter of criminality should be painted as party politics?

the very same dramatics and exaggerations that the APC rode on to power.

Nigeria will haven interim government and the likes. All to discredit one man and badmouth his party. Nigerians insincere and moved by negative sentiments since foetus...


what is wrong with PDP making the allegations known.

Make PDP no too overwail now...wailings still plenty as the day goes by......wailing wailers

why the guy go forge sef....he must dance to the music.

PDP MECHIONU PLEASE!

You've said it all brother........PDP should MECHIONU. They should be ready for their defences and stop calling on Nigerians to rescue them because they never rescued us in their reign in government for 16years.

Allegation known to who..........calling Nigerian for defence? PDP should carry their crosses alone, Nigerians will not share that with them, for sure they chop alone and they should be ready to die alone. CHIKENA!!

GBAM!!!

It is too early 4 PDP to be complaining. Remember u did worst during ya 16yrs of reign. Dont expect any sympathy from nigerians because u people dont deserve it. We voted 4 change so pack ya load and go

obailala:
Politics is a dirty game.

When PDP was playing advanced politics and having a PDP man emerge as DSP in an APC assembly, a lot of PDP sympathisers celebrated the 'civilian coup' and claimed they were teaching APC how to play politics.

Now APC has just woken up and decided to play the PDP dirty politics.

Una never see anything yet!

Let the GAME begin...........this will be interesting. Lets see who will teach who how to play politics.

Let me quote you fool `As we address you today, our democracy is facing a serious danger`Keep quiet you egg heads its your turn to face d heat, our democracy is not facing any danger.You guys will feel it.

joedave:
The Propaganda machinery of "the largest party in Africa" should be aware that Eight years is still a long way
from here! There is still a lot of hoot to make, a lot of moans and wailings still to come.
For now, save some breathe, the road may be longer than expected.

Do you think Buhari will over 10million votes if election is conducted now? His popularity is fast dwindling.

Why is PDP cry about what they started, The same system they set up when they were ruling party is now work against them and they are crying to us citizens now, what did they do in 16 years for the citizens. When PDP promised APC that they will not present any candidate for that election but betrayed them and nominate Ekweremadu, what was on their mind, that APC which didn't interferre for 16years with the two top position of the chamber during their tenure as the ruling party will sit down and watch them, let them continue to place politics. so when they play politics they expect a ruling party to watch, very funny. APC is even slow. They should use all the tools and security apparatus PDP use for 16years to fight them back, send people to jail, collect positions from them anyhow, PDP started it, it's hunting them now. Let the show being joroooo!

Just loving this. Keeps getting better day after day. This is what we want, clearly drawn battle lines in the house between the APC and the PDP. No padi-padiism anymore. I expect the PDP to respond by closing ranks to checkmate the excesses of the ruling APC in the spirit of proper debates.

But, why is the PDP whinning about this. History tells us that they hounded Tambuwal until he left. Do they expect the majority APC to say and do nothing?

alawi5k:

Yes, with even over101 per cent assurances, he will surpass what he even scored in the last election he won. You think the wailers wailing attract important or popular sympathy? Check out those wailing, if not same SaTanoid who vow to ever resistence to change. Or Have you forgotten all the liers lies during the electioneering campaign, the campaign of calumny? And yet, what has it yielded? GEJ defeat, period! TaNoid like you never believed your Otouke hero could be defeated, yet he was with ease. You had thought that your propaganda were working until reality stared bar at you, gbam. Same thing will happen any day so far it's with Buhari. Your wailing would avail you nothing nor would it amass you something.
Just one mere invitation? It just about 36 days out four years. So you still have enough wailing time, when the real probing begins.

The PDP way is always like that. Taking the unlawful to unimaginable heights.

ChelseaDr:
ok

If Ike Ekweremmadu is actually guilty as alleged then it means that either the clerk of the NASS was blind to have noticed the said "forgery" or he may be suffering from Alzheimer's disease or dementia.

It also means that the inauguration of the NASS by a "forged" document is nul and void.

But how could Mr Ekweremadu have single-handedly and stealthily amended a whole standing rule of the NASS, printed copies of the said document for all the members without anybody's notice....hmmm

I think the clerk should tell Nigerians all that he knows

chesterlee:
APC wants to Burn this country!!!!




"I belong to everyone, and belong to No one."

The biggest scam of a statement in the history of Nigeria!!!!

because someone who is alleged to have forged an important National Public Document is invited for investigation? Nigeria will not burn if the evidence of wrongdoing is glaring. Yahoo yahoo boys will know that parade don change.

PDP MECHIONU PLEASE!

Yes they should zip it shuushhhh

When PDP did the coup in the Senate we clapped for them that Nigeria is in for real politics. But, with just a little kick from APC they are crying rivers? Or are they not aware that they have four years to play opposition?
I hope Lai Mohammed free tutorial lecture is still available. Metuh should quickly grapes the offer and stops wailing like wailer because wailing is not opposition. We need real opposition party just like what APC did, but not crying nor wailing.

[size=14pt]JUst tired of this country![/size]

As long as Buhari does not put a Gun or bullet to anyones head (but charge them to a court of law) , PDP and SaTANoids can cry all they wants!

Knowing Nigerian Politicians, l can bet that everyone of them.... except Buhari, can be easily "legally charged to court and incarcerated" for one crime or the other since they are all criminals.

The thing is, "those who live in glass House should not throw stones".
If you are a criminal or have a criminal past yet to be unearthed, then you should know best when to "relax" otherwise, your past will be investigated and brought before a court, to teach you some sense.

That is not political witch-hunting...... its a strategic timing of missiles, to achieve set objectives.
It is done all over the world.

I always knew that CLERK of the House, who is a Civil Servant as at when the NASS was yet to be inaugurated.... but went on to disobey the orders of a sworn-in President Buhari, was up to something sinister.

Now, dem go hear-am.

Let the action begin jare, Kirikiri has "room to let".
