According to a statement issued in Lagos on Friday by its
National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said OPC members
were sighted at Owu -Elepe in Ikorodu Local Government Area on Friday morning camouflaging
in police and army uniforms.
”In his national broadcast to the nation on Friday
morning, President Jonathan said he is under oath to protect the lives of all
Nigerians and the security of the country at all times. How can he do that when
his supporters have engaged the services of ethnic militias, whom they have
clothed in police and military uniforms, to engage in violence and election
manipulations?
”If indeed the President means what he said, when he
warned in his broadcast that ‘all necessary measures have been put in place to
ensure that any persons who breach the peace or cause public disorder during or
after the elections are speedily apprehended and summarily dealt with according
to our laws’, then he should immediately call his supporters to order and
direct the security agencies to arrest those going around in fake police and
military uniforms,” APC said.
NB: If this statement is true, Security operatives need
to be extra vigilant, and OPC must be call to order.
