Yes, 90% of Chibok girls’ protesters belong to APC —Gbajabiamila

The Minority Leader of House of Representatives, Honourable Femi Gbajabiamila, on Sunday, expressed satisfaction remarks made by the Minister of Information, Mr Labaran Maku, last Wednesday, where he alleged that about 90 per cent of protesters campaigning for the release of the over 200 schoolgirls abducted in Chibok, Borno State, were members of the All Progressives Congress (APC). Honourable Gbajabiamila, in a statement made available to newsmen in Abuja, on Sunday, through his research aide, Mr Wasiu Olanrewaju-Smart said “Mr Maku, the Information Minister is right.” According his statement, Honourable Gbajabiamila believed that remarks made by the Minister of Information were a tactical admittance of leadership failure and the Federal Government was only losing confidence of many Nigerians, which it had failed to protect. He said: “I am particularly chuffed that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)-led government has finally woken up to smell the coffee and has admitted that APC is a movement and that 90 per cent of Nigerians are APC, because as far as I know, that is the exact percentage of Nigerians that are criticising government over the handling of the terrorism.” The lawmaker advised the Federal Government to retrace its step in handling insecurity in the country and face reality, saying “conscience is like an open wound and only the truth can heal it.”
