The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Thursday says it viewed the directive by the APC National Executive Committee that its members in the National Assembly should stall the passage of the 2014 budget as an onslaught on the country.PDP National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh, in a statement said directing the blockage of confirmation of new service chiefs was a clear and direct call for anarchy and a vindication of his party’s earlier position that the APC is out to destroy the institution of democracy and the unity of the nation.
He described the directive as anti people, saying that Nigerians can now see that
the PDP was not crying wolf when it alerted that the APC does not mean well for the nation.
Metuh stated, “in asking that service chiefs should not be confirmed by the Senate, the APC has revealed its devilish plot to undermine the nation’s security system, create a state of anarchy and pave way to unleash mayhem on the people.
“In trying to frustrate the passage of the 2014 budget, the APC has also exposed its plot to cripple the nation’s economy and plunge the people into untold hardship”
According to the PDP, by attempting to cause confusion in the National Assembly, which is the citadel of democracy, it is now clear to all Nigerians that the APC has commenced the implementation of its orchestrated plot to truncate the nation’s democracy, push the country
into a state chaos and achieve its doomsday predictions; a plot which must be stopped.
