The Peoples Democratic Party, has accused the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari of treating its members like refugees and prisoners of war.
National Publicity Secretary of the party, Olisa Metuh, said this on Tuesday, July 21, while addressing party stakeholders in Lokoja.
Metuh said: “We are being treated as if we are prisoners of war. We are being treated as if we are refugees. We are not afraid, we have faith in our strength and unity; faith in the peace, unity and progress of Nigeria.
“We (PDP) are not afraid of the intimidation, harassment and arrest of our members by the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari, if the arrest is done within the confines of the law.”
“We condemn the uncivilised method of arrest, intimidation and the denial of the fundamental human rights of members of our party who served in the last administration by the Buhari led administration.
“If the ruling party believes that there is any one who has served in the federal government and is guilty of corrupt practices, they are free within the law to investigate as long as they go through due process and observe the rule of law.”
