All Progressives Congress (APC) leader Cletus Oven has admitted that destabilizing the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is a strategy ahead of the 2027 elections.
Naija News reports that the statement was made by PDP leader Segun Sowunmi who blamed the crisis within the party on President Bola Tinubu’s appointment of Nyesom Wike as Minister of the Federal Capital Territory FCT. It is reported that this was issued in response to accusations that the
Sowunmi condemned Tinubu’s decision to appoint Wike as minister without consulting the party.
While answering questions on Channels Television’s Politics Today program on Friday, Mr Oven, who is also a former chairman of the Nigerian Congress of Political Parties CNPP in Cross River State, said it was part of the APC’s mandate to destabilize the PDP. He said there is.
He said destabilizing opposition parties is a good political weapon and is acceptable as long as it does not result in destructive violence.
He said, “If the PDP says that, it will be the worst political confession ever. If we are saying we can infiltrate the PDP and destabilize them, then the APC It’s part of our duty to do that, just as it’s their job to make sure it’s destabilizing. It’s a good political weapon to use, as long as it doesn’t become violent.”
