The All Progressive Congress, Bayelsa State chapter, has asked the Peoples Democratic Party to look inwards for the perpetrators of kidnap incidents ravaging the state.
The party spoke in Yenagoa on Thursday following an allegation of the PDP Youth Vanguard, that APC was responsible for the Wednesday’s abduction of Fyneman Wilson, the Special Adviser to Governor Seriake Dickson on Political Matters.
The APC condemned Wilson’s abduction and sympathised with his family.
However, the party alleged that notorious kidnappers were not just members of the PDP but were also holding political offices in Government House.
The state Secretary of the APC, Mr. Marlin Daniel, argued that the kidnapping of Wilson must have arisen from the statements credited to former President Goodluck Jonathan at the Dickson’s formal declaration for a second term.
Describing Jonathan as a huge disappointment to Nigeria and Bayelsa, Daniel said the former President foreclosed the ambitions of other PDP aspirants by undemocratically asking persons who bought forms in PDP to forget their aspirations and support Dickson.
He said the provocative statement of Jonathan might have compelled the supporters of the aggrieved aspirants to engage in criminal and violent protest.
He said the APC was too busy preparing for its primary election and too responsible to engage in criminality.
Daniel said the abducted victim is politically infinitesimal to be considered a threat to the march by the APC to win the December 5 governorship election.
