The All
Progressives Congress has described the arrest of the Speaker, Clerk and nine
members of the Kano State Legislature by the EFCC as an undisguised case
of political vendetta by a hurting presidency, whose target is actually the
State Governor.
ALHAJI LAI MOHAMMED |
In a
statement issued today in Lagos by its Interim National Publicity Secretary,
Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the APC said since the arrest of the lawmakers for
carrying out their statutory duty of approving a budget cannot be justified by
any law, it is clear to all discerning Nigerians that the only motive can only
be to harass and intimidate the lawmakers of a state that recently escaped from
the hell-hole called the PDP to join the APC.
It said the politically-motivated arrest also
undoubtedly marked the beginning of the long-expected series of persecution by
a desperate Federal Government, against APC states, in particular those states
that have recently ducked from the cascading PDP plague.
