Ndubuisi Orji, Abuja
The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has said it will leave nothing to chance in Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike’s allegation that there is a plot to assassinate him.
The PDP, in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, yesterday, said the the Federal Government’s response that, but for Wike’s constitutional immunity, he would have been invited for questioning, confirmed its the fears that government wants to silence the opposition.
The party condemned what it described as threats against Wike by the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed”
“It is shocking that, instead of calling for investigation into the serious revelation, the federal government had to resort to siege mentality, to scare the governor, ostensibly to cover up the severity of the allegation.
“Nigerians will recall that the PDP had earlier raised the alarm over plots to harass, intimidate, implicate and orchestrate untoward situations such as assassinations, unexplained accidents, inexplicable ‘armed robbery’ attacks, high profile abduction and sudden disappearances of opposition leaders and members.”
