The All Progressives Congress has hailed the reported suspension of
the PDP rally scheduled for Adamawa State on Tuesday, in line with the
prevailing mood of the nation, especially the abduction of over 200
school children in Borno State.
In a statement issued in Lagos on Monday by its Interim
National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party called
the suspension the very right decision to take under the circumstance.
It said the suspension of the rally has shown that President
Goodluck Jonathan is beginning to hearken to the voices of his
compatriots on important national issues.
”As we said in a statement we issued on April 24, it smacks
of insensitivity, inhumanity and indecency for our President and
other leaders to be engaged in any celebratory venture when we do not
yet know the fate of the school girls who were abducted from their
school and taken to an unknown destination.
”We also said the President should not repeat the same mistake
he made by flying to Kano to dance at a political rally even as the
smoke was yet to clear from the scene of the Nyanya bus park bombing. We
are
delighted that good sense has prevailed this time,” it said.
delighted that good sense has prevailed this time,” it said.
The party said while the President does not have to shut down
the government, he must continue to shun all celebratory public
outings until all the school girls have been safely reunited with their families.
