Ben Bruce attacks APC over Atiku, Peter Obi, Saraki’s meeting in Dubai

Ben Murray-Bruce, the Senator representing Bayelsa East has slammed
the All Progressives Congress, APC, over their condemnation of a
meeting held by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential
candidate, Atiku Abubakar, his running mate, Peter Obi, Senate
President, Bukola Saraki and the party's National Chairman, Uche
Secondus, in Dubai.

DAILY POST reports that the APC had claimed that Atiku, Obi, Saraki
and Secondus travelled to Dubai for "sinister purposes".

This was contained in a statement signed by the party's Deputy
National Publicity Secretary, Yekini Nabena, on Sunday, dismissing
reports that the four men went to Dubai to "plot strategies to oust
President Muhammadu Buhari" in next year's election and urged security
agents to be on the alert.

But reacting to the APC statement, Ben Bruce reminded the ruling party
of Buhari 's meetings with APC leaders during his stay in UK for eight
months.

The Bayelsa lawmaker on his Twitter page wrote: "How can APC say Atiku
Abubakar met with myself, Bukola Saraki, Peter Obi, Reno Omokri and
others in Dubai to plan against Nigeria?

"In 2018, Buhari spent five months in UK. He met with almost the whole
leadership of APC there. Did PDP complain or condemn?"
