PDP blames APC for Nyanya bomb attack, releases statement

. And now we are playing blame games. In statement signed this
afternoon by PDP National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa
Metuh, the party condemned today's Nyanya bombing
describing it as barbaric and extremely wicked and
maintaining that it was politically motivated. They called APC
out! So wait, politicians are playing games with people's lives?
Read statement below...
"The PDP weeps. We are indeed grief-stricken. Our hearts
go out to the bereaved, especially those who have been
orphaned and widowed and those now deprived of their
bread winners by this evil act. We share in their pain, their
anguish and their loss and pray that those behind their
grief must not escape justice," the party said.
"We stand by our earlier statements that these attacks on
our people are politically motivated by unpatriotic persons,
especially those in the APC, who have been making
utterances and comments, promoting violence and blood-
letting as a means of achieving political control." Continue...
"Nigerians are also aware of utterances by certain APC
governors which have been aimed at undermining our
security forces and emboldening insurgents against the
people.
"Those who have been promoting violence through their
utterances can now see the monster they have created.
They can now see the end product of their comments; a
country flowing daily with the blood of the innocent.
The question is; how do they feel when they see the
mangled and blood-soaked bodies of their victims? How do
they feel when they hear the voices of the dying and the
injured?
"Of course they feel nothing. Their hearts have been
hardened and they are embittered by the fact that they
have been rejected by the people. They are bitter because
the people have chosen to rally round the government they
love and voted for; but must they chose the path of
violence and bloodletting as a response to the wishes and
aspiration of the people.
Urging all well meaning Nigerians to stand up and join
President Goodluck Jonathan in his untiring efforts to
check terrorism in the country, the PDP caution those
fueling the attacks to retrace their steps, rid themselves
of bitterness and desperation and seek forgiveness from
God.
The party, in solidarity with the people also shelved all
official engagements while praying God to grant the
bereaved the fortitude to bear the loss.
