Press Statement

‘Explain Your Connections With MEND’, PDP Tells APC

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has tasked the All Progressives 
Congress (APC) to come out clean and explain to Nigerians, their 
connections with the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta 
(MEND).

PDP National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh in a statement on 
Wednesday said while the onus lies on the APC to choose those to work 
with in their quest for power, “the explanation has become necessary 
following the unsavory public reactions and concerns trailing the 
statement by MEND backing their Presidential candidate, General 
Muhammadu Buhari.

“What exactly does APC have in common with MEND? Why do they want to 
resurrect it? Nigerians want to know. Are we also expecting a similar 
statement from insurgents in the north, who initially named General 
Buhari to lead the dialogue between them and the Federal Government?

“Nigerians are indeed worried by these developments. We therefore urge 
the APC to come out clean and explain to the citizens what they have in 
common with these groups, especially given the statement by their flag 
bearer, after the 2011 elections, that the ‘dogs and baboons will all be 
soaked in blood”.

Signed:

Olisa Metuh
National Publicity Secretary



Hmmm we are all anticipating the drama of. 2015 Election
