APC accuses PDP Of Inciting Violence In Kano, Urges State Attorney-General To Commence Criminal Trial Of PDP Leaders Involved
By Saharareporters, New York
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) of inciting  violence in Kano moments after the state government announced the name of Sanusi Lamido Sanusi as the new Emir of Kano.
The party stated that the protests on Sunday was an apparent attempt to destabilize the state, and urged the state’s Attorney-General to prosecute all PDP officials involved in the act.
In a press statement issued in Lagos on Monday by its Interim National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said the statement issued by PDP's Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh, congratulating one of the contenders long before the Kano state government announced the new Emir was premeditated and calculated to incite violence.
APC wondered why a ruling party, which has access to the Kano  state government, would rush to the media to congratulate a contender who had not been selected, without even contacting the selecting authority to ensure the accuracy of whatever news it may have heard.
''What is so urgent about congratulating the new Emir that could not  have waited for a few hours for the appropriate authority to make an official announcement?'' APC queried.
The party said when the announcement was eventually made and the contender who had already been congratulated lost out, it was only natural that his supporters would feel shortchanged.
''It is, therefore, obvious that the PDP, through its National Publicity Secretary went out of their way to stoke the fire of violence in Kano.
''Since we live in a country that is being governed by the rule of law, the best option open to the  Kano state government is  for the State Attorney-General  to immediately commence  criminal proceedings against PDP and its officials for incitement. Whatever explanations they have for their irresponsible and premeditated actions they should  reserve for their defence in court, ‘’the statement concluded.
