APC Accuses PDP Of Sponsoring Attacks To Postpone Polls 2 hours ago The All Progressive Congress (APC) has accused the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) of being responsible for the attacks on President Goodluck Jonathan’s convoy in Katsina and Bauchi states. The accusation was contained in a statement issued on Saturday by the National Publicity Secretary of the party, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, a copy obtained by the Nation. The party said the attacks were engineered by the PDP to demonise the opposition and force the postponement of next month’s general elections. The APC alleged that the masterminds of the attacks were exposed through the coordinated hysterical reactions to it from the presidency, Senate President David Mark and the leadership of the Ijaw nation. The party said those who have gone into frenzy in condemning the attacks should direct their anger at the PDP, which hired the hoodlums who attacked the President in Katsina and Bauchi and gave them brooms to make them look like APC supporters, adding that information is now in the public domain that these attacks were self-inflicted with the aim of demonising the APC and instigating retaliatory attacks in the southern states, thus precipitating chaos which the PDP and the Presidency will then use as an excuse for the postponement of the elections.
