PDP blames APC for Abuja blast



The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has blamed the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the explosion that rocked Abuja on Monday in which almost 90 persons were killed and over 200 injured.

In a statement issued by its National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh, the party condemned as barbaric, monstrous and extremely wicked, the blasts which occurred at Nyanya, on the outskirts of the Federal Capital Territory.



The party said the blasts could not be justified under any guise, maintaining that they were politically motivated and can be traced to the utterances and comments of desperate persons who seek to undermine and discredit the present administration and make the nation ungovernable for President Goodluck Jonathan by instituting a reign of terror against the people.

The statement said: “We stand by our earlier statements that these attacks on our people are politically motivated by unpatriotic persons, especially those in the All Progressives Congress (APC) who have been making utterances and comments, promoting violence and blood-letting as a means of achieving political control.

“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 choose the path of violence and bloodletting as a response to the wishes and aspirations of the people?”

The ruling party said it was shocked and grief- stricken since it received the news of the gruesome attacks and killing of Nigerians pursuing their legitimate endeavors.

“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.

  2. It's a shame at the point where families and the nation are grieves, you have someone in his right frame of mind wanting to score cheap political points. Assuming one of your family members is among the deads, will you be attempting to score political point? The actions of these vampires in our nation is totally condemnable. God will deliver us from these evil doers.
    Politicains should not heat up our nation because of their selfish interest.

  4. APC or PDP or anyone else, justice will surely catch up with whoever is responsible. Whatever one sows, the same will the person surely reap.

  5. Metu and his PDP have lost touch with reality. They have lost focus and so, are clutching on to just anything to keep us all talking. The souls of all the innocent that have been dying for sometime are crying for justice! Great Nigerians, ARISE and take over your country. Enough of this docility.

  10. Some people are just fools .... If PDP is blaming APC.... I think PDP is the main culprit...Y is this happening after the successful wedding of GEJ's daughter's wedding. ... guess the bomb blast was to divert nigerians' attentions from the scandalous gold plated iphones. ...enough of political games with human lives. ..These politicians can effectively protect there families but the poor masses are the ones paying the price.... How I wish these evil doers will just start targeting these vampires calling themselves leaders... so sure they have hands in this because they are never victims...... @SHAKIRAAH

  11. This is not meant to be a joke Politicians should take note. Pot calling kettle black....You all are the same...The next thing now is for APC to say PDP is responsible because they used the blast to cover up for the scandalous spending at the GEJ'S daughter's wedding. So sad it's just the poor masses falling victim . OLUSESI MODUPE

  17. .....and come 2015, some of you will still align with members of this same PDP or APC we criticized today. Search your conscience and see that you are part of the problem. The change you seek starts with you. Today, ask your self in the context of Nigeria's situation today - What do i stand for and can die for if need be? If there is nothing, then banish yourself from Nigeria.

Why do we have to politicize every thing ... even the lives of the innocent Nigerians...PDP is now fast to blame APC...hmmmm na who we go ask? well Mr Metuh, Please dont make it look political... if you know those behind this things like you want to make us to believe please call them by names, we are tired of all this shit. Some years ago this Govt. told us that they know the Boko haram and that they are in the cabinet. Please mr. Metuh before God visit you in his anger stop making this thing look political and seeking to score points with the lives of the dead. Its cos your family member was not a victim. If you are sure of what you are saying mention names and i will take you serious ... otherwise you are a joker! Wake up! As for BOKO HARAM....... let the blood of the Innocent Hunt you and let the Angels of Death invade you hide out... any body in Govt and high places involved in this me that one die

  25. It is because you are very insensitive to the ply of the masses. Where do our so called leader be trading blame on the cause of the bomb blast.

    National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh,The party said the blasts could not be justified under any guise, maintaining that they were politically motivated and can be traced to the utterances and comments of desperate persons who seek to undermine and discredit the present administration and make the nation ungovernable for President Goodluck Jonathan by instituting a reign of terror against the people.

    This man (Chief Olisa Metuh) should be ashamed of himself. The way I see it, it is like trying to cover up for the scene which must have been cause by them.

    Did you see or hear anybody, party or organisation trading blame on the Syrian plane?

    Shame on all of you
