The
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has challenged the All Progressives Congress
(APC) to come out clear and explain to Nigerians the links between it and the
Chairman of INEC, Prof. Attahiru Jega, which informs and propels its feverish
fixation and huge interest in his stay in office.

National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh in a statement, Saturday, said it is
more than curious that the APC has continued to fabricate stories and show
undue interest on Prof. Jega, adding that such raise a lot of questions for the
opposition and the INEC Chairman.
“Undoubtedly,
the frenzy, hysteria and spate with which the APC has been inventing stories
regarding Prof. Jega’s stay in office even when nothing suggests that such was
on the table, raise a lot of issues.
“We
ask, is there any underlining issue or arrangement between APC and Prof. Jega
which the opposition is hell-bent to protect, informing its anxiety and
apprehension towards his stay in office?
“While it
is noted that the APC is a party of one week, one lie, we in the PDP look
beneath the surfaces to the deeper issues propelling the lies. We therefore
challenge the APC to come out clean and tell Nigerians the real reason behind
their false alarms and uncontrolled nervousness regarding Prof. Jega ahead of
the 2015 general elections.
“Finally,
we wish to remind the leadership of INEC that Nigerians are monitoring its
activities and series of unfolding political events ahead of the elections, and
will not accept anything less than the conduct of credible, free and fair
general elections come March 28 and April 11, 2015”, the party said.
