The Peoples Democracy Party has condemned the Department of State Services over the invasion and occupation of the residence of a former National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd).

The National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Chief Olisah Metuh, said the action of the DSS amounted to a violation of the rights of the former NSA and was contrary to the constitution of the country and the tenets of democracy.

He stressed that the invasion of the residence of the former NSA was unacceptable in a democratic setting.

Metuh made the comment while speaking with journalists at John Kadiya Street, Asokoro, residence of Dasuki in Abuja, on Friday.

The PDP Spokesman was turned back at the gate of Dasuki’s residence by operatives of the commission, who insisted that the residence was under security watch.

Metuh said while Nigerians elected Buhari because they wanted him, the actions of some of his aides were scary to the citizenry as they were taking the country back to the dark days of military dictatorship.

[b]He said, “I came into Abuja today because I read the situation about the invasion of the house of the former NSA and his detention, house arrest and other matters. So I drove to his house as a personal friend to see him and to find out what is happening. Then about seven or eight security operatives came out and they said I cannot see him because the house is under security watch.

“And I asked them: security watch in terms of treason, or in terms of terrorism, or what? I need to know, and they said they are not in a position to say. And why I asked this question is that if it is under security watch, on account of corruption or on account of any other reason, it is totally against the constitution of this country.

“This is a democracy, and the democratic tenets and principles apply. The fact is that we deserve basic freedom, liberties and movements associated with democracy. The truth is that Nigerians are getting scared; we voted for our President, they voted for the President and he was duly elected. Nigerians wanted him, Nigerians voted for him, and now he is the father of the nation, he is the father of everyone, he is not serving any other interest.

“But there are certain activities, as it is happening now, by some of his aides and people around him. It is like they are taking us back to the military era. The last time this happened was under the military.”

He urged the Federal Government to stop treating those who served in the last administration under President Goodluck Jonahan as prisoners of war.

He said what the PDP lost was an election and not a war.

He called on the government to ensure that those suspected to have committed any act against the laws of the country were handled according to the stipulations of the law.

“There has never been any situation where people would be held against their will. It is completely against his fundamental human rights and we should be careful here. We should be very careful because this is how it started in Zimbabwe, this is how it started in other countries.

“Before you know it, we have a dictatorship, you cannot scare us, we are not guilty because we served under a former President, we are not guilty because we lost an election, we are not losers in a war. We lost an election, not a war, we are not prisoners of war and we should not be treated like prisoners of war.

“What we demand is respect, there is the rule of law, we will not condone corrupt activities or any other illegal or unlawful act,” he added.[/b]

...Naija for change

Olisa Metuh is a fuccking hypocrite! Where was he when Jonathan and PDP used DSS officials to surround Bola Tinubu's house and Government House in Owerri? Even Adam's Oshiomole wasn't spared of Jonathan's tyranny. All because they were APC members.

Olisa Metuh should shut the fucck up and go get a tutorial from Lai Mohammed on how to play the opposition.


Onye ara!

Chief wailing wailer.
16 years of PDP's democracy what did we get outside looters who looted the nation to penury.
This man needs to hide his face and close his mouth and watch the events that will unfold.
He is only crying foul because he will soon be a culprit.
No sinner shall go unpunished Mr Metuh

Where were PDP when NDLEA besieged Kashamu's house for days under Jonathan?

Why is the name PDP synonymous with Hypocrisy?

Reserve Bench!!

The Sole Administrator and de facto despotic ruler is wearing his dictatorial garb once again, more impunities would follow. This was what led to his sacking 18months into the job of being head of state.

The illiterate refuse to learn from history.

PDP = toothless dog in this dispensation

hit like if you think at the end of the day the colonel will walk home free

If Olisa Mutuh is smart he should just shut up and stay out of this cos he might be called for questioning too since he is a friend of the thief, this former security adviser were the people that made this security situation worse, they were siphoning money into private accounts, the soldiers are dying in the field and they are busy enriching themselves if he has nothing to hide, this is democracy right? he should follow them then get a good lawyer but like my mama would say if you dont have any cockroach in your cupboard your heart will be as strong as that of a lion, (even though i hate that proverb but anytime she says it i know its true,)

What legal basis does the DSS have to hold Col Dasuki and Bello Fadile under house arrest, None, they are simply taking advantage of the fact that the courts are closed till Tuesday to harass them, What the hell kinda stupid reason is "security watch" this is a violation of their rights and a dangerous descent into dictatorship.

PDP has been crying to high heavens for Buhari to attend quickly to the challenges facing the nation.

Buhari has concluded his background work and he is now setting out with steps to put things in order.

The very same PDP are now the stumbling block determined that the President must be frustrated from achieving anything positive, so they can lament about his failures.

Nigerians behold your enemies.

A revolution would have put PDP in the coffin it put many Nigerians for 16years, but a democratic change ensures they continue on the sidelines, and will continue to torment the souls of the dead.

A revolution is not far-fetched, it is already overdue.
