Buhari is Scared of Dasuki becoming President – Olisa Metuh

Nigeria’s Chief opposition party, Peoples Democratic Party say the All Progressives Congress-led federal government is afraid of the possibility of former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki, becoming President.

PDP believes that it is as a result of this fear, that the corruption war of President Muhammadu Buhari is focused on members of the opposition party especially the former National Security Adviser .

According to statement released yesterday by the National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh, noting that the ruling party is hell bent on destroying the PDP before the 2018 general elections.

“It is sad and embarrassing that President Buhari’s anti-corruption crusade has now been reduced to a war between the APC and the PDP as declared by the office of his spokespersons. Since they have confirmed that this is what the anti-corruption crusade is all about, the APC is obviously seeking to destroy the PDP so that it can push through Buhari’s second tenure in 2019 without opposition from the PDP.

“This has also confirmed our concern that this is the reason the Federal Government is persecuting, and not prosecuting, Col. Sambo Dasuki. The APC and its leaders fear that Dasuki, given his vast political and security network, may be harbouring a presidential ambition, more so that the PDP has zoned its presidential ticket to the north,” Metuh said.

Chief Metuh further stated that the PDP was aware of an alleged sinister plan by the APC-led Federal Government to completely decimate the party by filing corruption charges against the administration of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan and leaders of the PDP.
