oyegunThe All Progressives Congress has condemned “in the strongest terms the abominable spate of bomb blasts and almost obvious attempt to take the life of Major General Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR,{rtd}. We understand that the unassuming, peaceful and humble general was on his way to his village, Daura, when a vehicle trailed him.”
National Chairman of APC ,Chief John E.K. Odigie- Oyegun ,the party “also expresses our heartfelt condolences for those who lost their lives in the first bomb blast which claimed scores of lives in Kaduna. We join their families in praying to Almighty God for the repose of the souls of the dead and speedy recovery of the injured.
“We are grateful to God that General Buhari’s life was spared. Three of his aides were however injured, in the incident and have been discharged after treatment.
“We urgently appeal to his supporters nationwide to please remain calm, in the face of what seems obvious provocation, but strongly urge Mr President to speedily set up a high powered probe to unravel those behind the suspicious bomb blast. This incident must not be treated as one of the usual Boko Haram atrocities as there seems to be more to it than meets the eye.
The chairman said further “We want to reiterate once again, that because of the innocent lives being lost on daily basis, we committed our great Party to full cooperation with the Jonathan administration in seeking solutions to the insurgency. But the Jonathan is more intent on politicizing the issue to the extent of hiring propagandists from as far away as Russia and United States.
The APC for the umpteenth time called on President Goodluck Jonathan to take the protection of Nigerian lives more seriously and to prudently utilize the huge amounts budgeted for security to upgrade our security infrastructure. In addition his administration should fully cooperate with the international community in order to crush the Boko Haram insurgency.
