The All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain made the assertion in a statement he released on Friday, September 23, 2022.
Some chieftains of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have been accused of being behind terrorist organisations like Boko Haram and others in the North.
Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode (FFK) who is now a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) made the claim in a statement he released on Friday, September 23, 2022.
FFK alleged in his publication that some PDP leaders and members are “behind much of the insurgency, bloodshed and mass murder in the North West and parts of the North Central and particularly in Zamfara, Kaduna, Niger, Nassarawa and Katsina.”
Pointing more accusation fingers at the PDP, FFK said PDP is “A party that has done nothing but humiliate it’s former President and flagbearer for the 2015 presidential election, President Goodluck Jonathan, over the last seven years and who did not even see fit to give him a place or a role in their Presidential Campaign Council.
“A party whose National Chairman is little better than a haughty peacock and who is so vain, puffed up, conceited and deluded that he believes he is more important than all the Presidents on the African continent put together.”
According to him, the only thing the party is good at is using religion and ethnicity to cause division among citizens.
“They know nothing else. They pit Nigerian against Nigerians and seek to divide us rather than bring us together.
Speaking about the feud between Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike and PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, FFK said the umbrella camp “do not care about progress and they do not even know the meaning of the word: they only care about their pockets. The only way forward for the Wike group is to come out of the shadows and support Asiwaju for the presidential campaign and get their supporters to vote for his candidacy.”
He added: “It is a matter of honor. They took everything from them including their self-respect and dignity. What more do they have left and what are they waiting for? If Atiku wins the election he will come after them with all he has got and utterly crush and destroy them.
“Even if Atiku or Okowa themselves are not interested in doing so the hawks around them like Sule Lamido, Attahiru Bafarawa and Adamu Waziri will ensure this is done. For the Wike group the threat is now existential.
“Each and every one of them has been marked for destruction and humiliation by the new leaders of their party.”
The APC chieftain further said that PDP is not only a menace to their own loyal members but a very real and present danger to Nigeria.
“They should be treated with contempt and the shameless club of degenerates and clan of lepers that they are,” he said.
