The National Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP,
Senator Samuel Anyanwu, on Monday said no Nigerian will ever accept the All
Progressives Congress (APC) and its chief drivers after it has inflicted the
country with hardship.
The opposition party scribe alleged that the APC and its
leadership are using maximum force on Nigerians in a bid to compel them to have
sympathy for them.
According to a statement signed by his Special Adviser on
Media, Ikenna Onuoha, Anyanwu called on government security agencies in the
country to stop abusing the rights of the citizens in the cause of carrying out
their duties.
He regrets that instead of ensuring peace and tranquillity,
some security operatives go about subjecting harmless Nigerians to undue
labour, maltreatment, and pains.
Anyanwu states that such act is a clear violation of
people’s constitutional rights, and called on human rights defenders to
urgently intervene.
The PDP National Secretary further advised them to always
apply caution in their dealings with the public, maintaining that their
relationship with the people can go a long way to redeem Nigeria’s image.
Anyanwu, therefore, appealed to security operatives still in
the habit of oppressing Nigerians especially, the youths to desist, warning
that such act if not cushioned is capable of brewing another crisis and
triggering youth restiveness in the country.
