Osun PDP Chairman Accuses APC Group Of Having Stockpile Of Weapons…Why Police, DSS Should Quiz Him Without Delay –APC

Osun state PDP on Saturday raised the alarm  that rival groups in the state APC are fighting dirty while warning them not to undermine the peace being enjoyed by the good people of the state under the PDP government  headed by Governor Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke.

Noting that this had been done in reaction to claims of  getting death threats  and the attendant reactions from the rival  groups in  the  state APC , the PDP  asked the security agencies to be alert to claims and counterclaims of  death threats  while citing former president Goodluck Jonathan’s famous quote  that ‘no ambition of anyone is worth the blood of any citizen of Nigeria’.

The PDP  in a statement  made available to Team@orientactualmags.com by the state Chairman, Hon Sunday Bisi  condemned what it called   attempts by the APC ‘to push the state back into the dark ages of political assassinations on mundane issues of political differences’ while alleging that one of the groups in question already has a stockpile of weapons and ammunition.

‘For us in the PDP, we have always aligned ourselves with the peaceful disposition of the leader of the state, His Excellency, Governor Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke. We align with his views that there can never be meaningful development in an atmosphere of war and bloodshed.

We appeal to both the aggressors and the bullied caucuses in the opposition fold to sheath their swords and allow peace to reign in the state.

The PDP administration led by our amiable Governor, Senator Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke, will not tolerate any attempt by any political group or association to interject the prevailing peace in the state with horrible assassination attempts on the life of anyone, political party affiliations notwithstanding.

The PDP government takes exception to brutal gun attacks which became order of the day during the immediate past APC administration in the state headed by Mr Gboyega Oyetola.

The daylight gun attacks on Oranmiyan house where members of a caucus of the APC were holding their public meetings and which saw them escape by the whiskers would no longer be tolerated in this state.

A situation where political actors in the APC threaten themselves openly and with reckless abandon, is unacceptable, as it is inimical to the peace of the state which was engineered and sustained since assumption of office of PDP administration a little over a year ago.

Using violence to impose unpopular political narratives on the people is no longer tenable. Everybody must go about his political businesses in peace and as obtainable in civilized society.

The sword of violence contains many sharp and dangerous edges, which is often the case of aggressors, unconsciously courting equal measure of reactions by their victims. This to us, would be a dangerous dimension, which certainly would blow no one any good.

We once again, call on the security agencies to be alive to the treacherous tricks of unscrupulous elements in the state, intimidating them into hasty and lopsided arrests, aimed at coercing peace loving members of the public into submission.

The aggressors of today in the APC must be watched and adequately profiled rather than being pampered through instrumentality of intimidation. The people of Osun state have overgrown such a plot of some lazy political outcasts, trying to force themselves on the people. It has never worked and it will not work, even now!

The security agencies must be aware that no human society can thrive on thorny path of injustice, insecurity and unwarranted intimidation. Allowing themselves to be trapped in the trickery of exchanging or sacrificing victims for the real criminals, is akin to adding salt to injuries of such victims of violence, often aided by unpopular political gluttons, would only breed further insecurity and that must not be allowed to gain traction in Osun state.

We are not unaware of the arms buildup by a faction of the APC, which is the reason for their naked effrontery of issuing threats to their perceived political opponents. Such evil plan will be thwarted by every means possible under the law.

Governor Ademola Adeleke is undoubtedly a peace loving leader, but his peaceful stance must not be taken for granted. Anyone or group of people, who indulge in any form of social vices, capable of disrupting wheel of progress of the state, should prepare to face the consequences, no matter whose ox is gored.

Shedding crocodile tears to confuse the security agencies after perpetrating evil against innocent people of the state, will no longer work, as all elements hiding under such a deceitful shield, will henceforth be made to taste the bitter pill of their trade under relevant laws of the country’ the statement said.

Reacting to the statement issued by  the state PDP and the allegations it had raised, the state APC has accused the chairman of the ruling party of  selling a dummy to the public with respect to the true security situation in the state under the Governor Ademola Adeleke administration.

The state APC chairman , Sooko Tajudeen Lawal, in a statement issued in Osogbo and made available to Team@orientactualmags.com  by the party’s Director of Media and Information, Chief Kola Olabisi, submitted that it was strange that such an unguarded allegation about threat to peace and security could be amplified by a party leader. 

Lawal noted that those who know the author of the statement , Hon Sunday Bisi might not be bothered much ‘as no discerning mind could expect something better from him’.

‘Is the memory of Sunday Bisi playing him false to the extent that he has forgotten so soon that an appointee of Governor Adeleke, Dauda Olalekan, popularly known as ‘Emir Ajagungbade’ is currently on trial at different courts of the land over murder, kidnapping and terrorism; and that another daredevil PDP thug, Bode Itaapa, who was recently arrested by the ever-vigilant police, has confessed that some highly -placed PDP functionaries sponsored him and other wanted criminals to kill members of the APC?

Sunday Bisi cannot pretend not to know that Bode Itaapa who has been singing like a Canary bird in the police detention has volunteered information on how he with other thugs were equipped by the PDP gladiators with fake Army/Police uniforms, five Hilux vehicles and substantial amount of money to facilitate their dastard act against the opposition members.

Has Sunday Bisi forgotten so soon the series of threats made  by some of the leaders of the PDP in Ikire, Ikirun, Iwo, Osogbo, Ilesa, etc, against the APC members and our supporters before the violence-soaked and pungently rigged elections in the state?

We are not unaware of the despicable role Sunday Bisi and other criminally-minded chieftains in the government of Osun are playing to free Bode Itaapa and other deviants facing murder, kidnapping and terrorism charges.

The context of the ill-thought-out statement of the confused state  PDP chairman about the conjectured insecurity in the state would be useful for the police and the DSS who should wait no further to invite Sunday Bisi and help their statutory obligations on the issue at stake’ the statement added-Team@orientactualmags.com  Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
