The Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) has reacted to the declaration of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB,
as a terrorist organisation.
PDP National Publicity Secretary,
Dayo Adeyeye, on Saturday in Abuja said the military had no power to make such
declaration.
“I believe there are processes
and procedures to be followed before such can be done.
“It is not in the powers of any
organisation, especially the military, to unilaterally declare any organisation
a terrorist organisation,” he said.
Adeyeye, however, commended the
steps taken so far by the South East Governors’ Forum to ensure peace and
stability within the region.
“I believe that the governors
have acted in the best interest of the country,’’ he said.
Adeyeye also advised IPOB leaders
to be clear on their demand, as well on their tactics and strategies for
pursuing such demands.
“If you say you are non-violent,
you should not be provoked into acts of violence.
“They should be able to study the
tactics employed be the civil right groups in the United States.
“If you believe in non-violence,
you should study the tactics employed by the civil rights group in US led by
the great Martin Luther King jnr. so that they will not be provoked under any
circumstances.
“There was an instance when
Martin Luther was beaten up and slapped during his struggle but he refused to
react: that is the tactics of non-violence.
“It has been employed in many
parts of the world with great success,” he added.
