The All Progressives Congress
(APC) has claimed that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential
candidate, Atiku Abubakar, his running mate, Peter Obi, Senate President,
Bukola Saraki and the party’s National Chairman, Uche Secondus, travelled to
Dubai for “sinister purposes”.
This was contained in a statement
signed by the party’s Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Yekini Nabena, on
Sunday.
Nabena dismissed reports that the
four men went to Dubai to “plot strategies to oust President Muhammadu Buhari”
in next year’s election and urged security agents to be on the alert.
“The purpose of the said meeting
is both comical and ridiculous as they have held several meetings for the same
purpose in Nigeria.
“Clearly, the meetings held in
Nigeria did not yield their desired results, hence, a follow up meeting in
Dubai.
“But we know the way of these set
of politicians and the political party they represent.
“There is more to the meeting
that meets the eye. Nigeria has enough meeting/conference rooms, many of which
meet international standards. It is therefore clear that the Dubai meeting is
for other sinister political purposes ahead of the 2019 elections.
“Our intelligence, anti-graft and
security agencies must be awake to its responsibility of investigating the
Dubai meeting.
“Cash and carry politicians must
be prevented from moving illicit cash around to induce voters and sponsor
election violence and rigging.
“Again, relevant agencies must
check suspicious movement of cash both locally and internationally by
politically exposed persons under the guise of a ‘Dubai meeting’ or any
clandestine meeting.
“We are mindful of how millions
of dollars were confiscated in an aircraft belonging in a Nigerian PDP
sympathizer in South Africa in the leadup to the 2015 elections.
“The case of N250 million cache
found in the Peter Obi’s private office in Lagos remains unresolved.
“Another round of election is
here and it is not unlikely that they are playing a repeat performance, under
the guise of holding a meeting in Dubai.
“Our security agencies should be
on the watch for a stitch in time saves nine,” the statement read.
