Labour Party (LP) has said that Boko Haram members never kidnapped
the 300 Chibok schoolgirls and that the APC concocted the story just to
dent the image of former president Goodluck Jonathan’s administration.
The party in a statement released Tuesday which was signed by its
national chairman, Abdulkadir Abdulsalami, the party said the recent
release of 82 Chibok school girls is a fluke and that APC should expect
the wrath of God for manipulating parents of the Chibok girls.
The
statement in part reads:
“The government should expect the wrath of God for deceiving Nigerians
and manipulating the parents of the Chibok girls. The release of the
Chibok girls is a fluke and an ordinary abracadabra. If by this time,
they claimed to have captured Sambisa forest, from which other forest
will they say they have brought these girls. I think Nigerians need to
be told the truth by our leaders, if they want sympathy from Almighty
God, what happened to the Chibok girls. By the time we get to May 29
next year (2018), they will now release all the remaining girls to say
they have fought the war, they have won the war. But the fact of the
matter, as I have been saying before, during and after the campaign for
the 2015 general elections, is that these Chibok girls were not
kidnapped by any Boko Haram.
They were prepared and arranged to destroy the image and administration
of President Goodluck Jonathan. The present government has worsened the
suffering of Nigerians. We have suffered enough, and if Buhari doesn’t
leave office, Nigerians should expect worse repercussions from the
government. If they don’t have capacity, let them get away from
government. The APC should step aside and let a responsible government
take over the administration of Nigeria. You can’t talk of the
government without bringing in APC. Buhari came on the platform of
change, using deceit in all its programmes”.
