The Lagos State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has called on the security agencies to interrogate Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, APC national leader for making reckless statement.
On April 23 at his investiture as the Chancellor, Ladoke Akintola
University of Technology (LAUTECH) Ogbomosho,Tinubu had said that anyone
who attempted to rig the upcoming elections in Ekiti and Osun states would be roasted.
A statement signed by Mr Taofik Gani the state PDP publicity secretary,
said the statement was capable of worsening the security challenges
facing the country.
He said the statement was criminal and there was need to get the APC leader to
explain details of his utterances.
"We are indeed worried that such inflammatory, inciting and criminal
pronouncement can be made in our country at this period that we are
confronted with serious security problems. The statement must not be
treated with kid gloves as it may ignite conflagration in the South-West
region" he said.
Gani urged politicians to have trust in the law courts to punish
election offenders. He said that the peace and tranquility of the
country must supersede all personal interests.
