…says attack on Abia gov is irresponsible
By Promise Godfery, Abuja
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Wednesday chided Senator Smart Adeyemi and described his verbal attack on Abia State governor, Dr Okezie Ikpeazu, as irresponsible.
The party asserts that Adeyemi , Senator representing APC Kogi West, exhibited a high level of
irresponsibility by using the privileges of the Senate Chamber to engage in unprovoked disparagement of Ikpeazu and the entire people of Abia state, who had not offended him in any way.
“It is indeed unfortunate that Senator Adeyemi, whose words were respected by Nigerians while he was in the PDP has become so corrupted by his sojourn in the All Progressives Congress (APC), that he has completely lost his mind just to satisfy some new gods.” A statement by Kola Ologbondiyan, National Publicity Secretary of PDP stated.
The statement reads: “Senator Adeyemi must have noted the widespread national detestation and opprobrium that he had brought to himself by his unguarded comment against the highly respected Governor Ikpeazu and the people of Abia state.
“Moreover, our party has equally noted that Senator Adeyemi’s uncouth comment is borne out of bitter envy for the achievements of Governor Ikpeazu in every sector of life in Abia state, which no APC governor, including Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State can compare.
“The PDP therefore issues a very strong warning that it would not stomach any such unwarranted and unprovoked attack on any of our governors but will deploy all instruments provided in a democratic setting against such individual.
