According to the opposition party, “the PDP claims that the use of blackmail, threats and attacks against the PDP and other well-meaning Nigerians, as evidenced by APC’s statement today, in which it attempted to trivialize, politicize and reject the alarming violence in the country, cannot deter the PDP from further exposing the atrocities of the APC and its leaders.
“Our party insists that all physical evidence shows that the CPA and its leaders are implementing their Janjaweed program to balkanize and destroy our nation through their ungodly body language, their divisive policies, their acts of violence, their human rights violations, their contempt for our national sensitivities and shameful. condescension of terrorists and bandits, which has led to widespread murders, violence and dissonance in our country. “

President Goodluck Jonathan, Barr. Ahmed Goulak.
“Our party severely berates the national leadership of the APC for seeking, in its press release today, to politicize the gruesome murder of a prominent Nigerian like Ahmed Gulak, an incident that took place in a state under control, instead of strongly condemning this act. and give his government a precise order of march to hold the culprits to account.
“Nigerians are still waiting for an explanation from the APC and its government on this horrific murder in Ngor Okpalla.
“It is rather absurd and a mark of failure of the leadership that the APC attacks the PDP for exposing its failures and complicity in the violence and killings in our country, but has failed to provide answers. to the revelations that many bandits, terrorists and kidnappers ravage. our nation are political mercenaries that she imported, as criminal thugs, to help unleash violence against Nigerians in the elections.
“These APC mercenaries, having no interest in our national life, are now killing and maiming Nigerians and turning their evil business, emboldened by the APC, into a lucrative business by extorting money through money. huge ransoms.
