The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has called for the arrest and
investigation of Governor Chibuike Amaechi for treasonable felony for
threatening that if All Progressive Congress, APC, is rigged out in the
forthcoming election it would form a parallel government.
In a
statement issued by the Rivers state chapter of the party, it said
Governor Chibuike Amaechi should be cautioned because his statement
could incite needless crisis not only in the state but also across the
nation.
The party through a statement by its chairman, Felix Obuah
and signed by his Media Adviser, Jerry Needam urged the police
particularly as well as other law enforcement agencies to investigate,
and possibly invite Amaechi for questioning over his threat of forming a
parallel government in Nigeria should the PDP win the 2015 general
elections in the State.
According to the PDP, “Amaechi’s
effrontery to lead other All Progressives Congress, APC members on a
protest march to the Force Headquarters of the Nigeria Police in Abuja
Wednesday, November 19, 2014 and the threat of resorting to self help if
the APC loses next year’s election rather than going to the court to
seek redress are weighty, pre-emptive and treasonable and must not be
dismissed with a wave of the hand.”
The PDP believes that Amaechi
is not just posting a poser, but means every word of his threat which he
has by all means demonstrated in his relationship and sponsorship of
strife in the state which has left the State House of Assembly as well
as the State Judiciary under lock and key.
“Governor Amaechi knows
too well that he, and his APC are not on ground and cannot win any fair
election in the State and the country, hence he has started issuing
threats to create panic in the voters.
The party stated further
that Amaechi thinks he is law unto himself because he has been hiding
under the canopy of immunity clause.
The party urged law enforcement agents to beware and take note of these treasonable threats and act fast and wisely.
PDP
assured the people of the state not to give in to politics of coercion
and terror and stand firm in their resolve to support the wind of change
for better life and improved living standard for the majority of the
people,which the PDP out is out to foster on Nigeria.
Rivers PDP declared that evil fashioned against the state and Nigeria will not succeed.
