APC could kill Jonathan to take over power before 2015 - Edwin Clark

By Ehi Ekhator, Naija Center News

Chief Edwin Clark, a former Federal Commissioner for Information, has spoken out on his fear over President Jonathan’s preparatory to his next year election, saying that the opposition could go all the way to kill him just to take over power in 2015.

He said this while addressing a group under the aegis of Peoples Democratic Party Ward2Ward Initiative in Abuja on Thursday.

Clark fingered the All Progressives Congress as he said they are taking advantage of the crisis in the North with the believe that it will degenerate into anarchy and then make the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP-led administration unpopular so that their dream of being in power would come through, also to win the heart of Nigerian electorate in the coming election next year.

He said such expectation by the APC politicians was an indication that they were not only unpatriotic but never believed in the Nigerian project.

He said: “I appeal to the national chairman of APC, who is my very good friend, who in those days, we regarded as super permanent secretary not to join those who want to take office at all cost. If they have their way, they can kill Jonathan, they can poison him, provided they will go into office. If Nigeria falls, there will be no country for the opposition to take over.

“The mere fact that you are in opposition, you are not in the government party, is not enough to destroy your own country, if you do that, then you are unpatriotic, you are not a Nigerian.

“I pray that the opposition should identify itself with the government in tackling the problems in the North East which is a Nigerian problem. It is not an Hausa problem, or Kanuri one, it is a problems for all of us.
