The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) says the All Progressives Congress (APC) is in possession of tapes of terrorist attacks on Nigerians, “which it intends to air to achieve its a selfish purpose”.

It said that after releasing the tapes, the opposition party must explain to Nigerians how it got hold of them.

“We ask, is the APC working in collaboration with terrorist cells who have been unleashing violence against innocent citizens of our dear nation?” Olisa Metuh, spokesman of the PDP, queried in a statement.

“Are these the same terrorist groups that earlier nominated the APC presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari, to represent them in the dialogue between them and the federal government?

“Nigerians should be worried over the connections the APC might have with insurgent groups, especially coming on the heels of recent support expressed to their presidential candidate by the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND).

“We wish to clarify that this is not an attack on the APC as a party, but rather a serious issue that borders on national security.

“We therefore call on all Nigerians and lovers of democracy to note this, as the APC embarks on a campaign to attempt to gain directly from the security challenges facing our nation.”
