The All Progressives Congress (APC) support group, Youth Wing Mobilisation Vanguard has counselled the People Democratic Party (PDP) supporters against harassment accusation in the North-west states.
The Group’s Chairman, Alhaji Ashiru Tukur, gave the advise in an interview with the newsmen on Sunday in Sokoto.
Tukur lamented the PDP’s allegations of political harrasment of their supporters by the Minister of State Defence, Alhaji Bello Matawalle, which was circulated through PDP support group.
He enjoined party bigwigs to concentrate on resolving their party intrigues, wranglings and challenges against meddling into APC affairs in the northwest states.
” The accusations of political harassment by whatever means against any political groups in the country under the present administration of BolaTinubu is baseless and cheap political propaganda aimed at tarnishing image of the led APC-administration.
” President Tinubu allows breathing space for political differences in the country, nurturing a society characterized by mutual respect, understanding, and progress, ” Tukur declared.
He criticized PDP in the Northern parts of Nigeria as a collection of disappointed and failed political group.
He cautioned the party loyalists against masterminding mischiefs purposefully to create political instability and unleash havoc and distrust among Nigerians.
” This is mere display of incompetence and weakness, associating hatred and blackmail on Matawalle.
” This is an attempt to create a heightened tension, conflict, and disharmony at a time when people are looking for solution to end insecurity, hunger and poverty in the region,” Tukur added.
He pointed out that just recently, Matawalle and Sen. Abdul’aziz Yari along with other APC stalwarts donated food items to flood displaced persons in Gummi besides other gestures.
He therefore urged party leaders to eschew divisive tactics, foster an ethos of cooperation, empathy, and constructive communication rather than heating the polity at very tender stage as sponsored by these enemies of peace, cohesion and progress.
The chairman stressed that Matawalle deserves apology from the group and their sponsors on their laundering image campaigns as well as urged Minister to remain steadfast, hard working person.
