Watch your tongue – APC warns PDP chairman, Secondus
chairman of the People's Democratic Party (PDP), Uche Secondus over
his utterances.
The ruling party stated that the leader of the opposition platform has
been raising false alarm about Nigeria's polity.
APC spokesman, Yekini Nabena, in a statement on Tuesday, said Secondus
was expected to exhibit the highest sense of patriotism, decency and
decorum in public conduct and discourse.
He noted that, "Regrettably, the National Chairman of the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP), Prince Uche Secondus has not lived up to these
basic expectations.
"Weeks ago the PDP National Chairman took the internal matters of the
country's politics to the international scene by writing letters to
various international organizations.
"Again, soon after the Independent National Electoral Commission
(INEC) declared the Osun State Governorship Election inconclusive,
Prince Secondus without basis accused the electoral body of conspiring
with the All Progressives Congress (APC) to declare the election
inconclusive.
"The APC would as a rule ignore irresponsible and baseless utterances
and actions as exhibited by the PDP National Chairman, but as we
prepare for the forthcoming 2019 General elections, it is necessary we
give a word of caution on expected behavior required of all political
sides. Prince Secondus is respectfully advised to temper his political
language and conduct.
"His unfounded allegation on the inconclusive Osun State governorship
election is not expected from such highly-placed party official.
Accusing the APC of conspiring with INEC, without proof, is taking
mudslinging too far.
"We advise Prince Secondus not to descend to the level unexpected of
his office, less he enters the boxing ring with its attendant mud and
dirt. His action will only bring him personal attacks, ridicule. A
word is enough for the wise!"
