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."

“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.
