Verbal Assault on Ikpeazu: You’ve Completely Lost Your Mind: PDP Tells Smart Adeyemi
…Says verbal assault on Ikpeazu is irresponsible
BY EVELYN DADU, ABUJA – The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Wednesday said that in order to satisfy some new gods, Senator Smart Adeywmi (APC Kogi) has completely lost his mind thus the verbal assault on Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State.
The Party particularly described Adeyemi’s verbal attack on Governor Ikpeazu of Abia State, as irresponsible, stressing that he exhibited a high level of irresponsibility by using the privileges of the Senate Chamber to engage in unprovoked disparagement of Governor Ikpeazu and the entire people of Abia state, who had not offended him in any way.
The PDP said that it is indeed unfortunate that Adeyemi, whose words used to be respected by Nigerians while he was in the PDP has become so corrupted by his sojourn in the All Progressives Congress (APC), that he has completely lost his mind just to satisfy some new gods.
It further said that Adeyemi must have noted the widespread national detestation and opprobrium that he had brought to himself by his unguarded comment against the highly respected Governor Ikpeazu and the people of Abia state.
A statement by the National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Mr Kola Ologbondiyan noted that Adeyemi’s uncouth comment is borne out of bitter envy for the achievements of Governor Ikpeazu in every sector of life in Abia state, which no APC governor, including Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State can compare.
The PDP therefore warned that it would not stomach any such unwarranted and unprovoked attack on any of its governors but will deploy all instruments provided in a democratic setting against such individual.
The party however urged Governor Ikpeazu not to be distracted by sidetracking elements such as Adeyemi, but to continue to deliver the dividends of democracy to his people.
