The All Progressives Congress, APC, yesterday, accused President Goodluck Jonathan’s aides of overheating the polity with their pronouncements and urged the President to call them to order.
The party, in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, also re-echoed its earlier claim that the Jonathan administration was frustrating the transition process.
The party said: “While PDP may be deeply traumatized by its loss, that should not be a reason for it to disrupt the nation’s peace by displaying crab mentality.”
It described as provocative and ill-intentioned the statement credited to Special Adviser to the President on Political Affairs, Professor Rufai Alkali, that APC should talk less and plan more for the nation, and that APC was seeking to stampede the President out of office.
“Professor Alkali does not know what he is saying. How does he expect us to plan when the PDP-led government has bluntly refused to cooperate with us in ensuring a successful transition?
“As we write, the Transition Committee of the Federal Government has yet to hold a single meeting with our own Transition Committee, neither have they given us a line of handover note.
“As a matter of fact, the Jonathan administration has said the handover notes will not be ready until the third week of May, meaning just a week before the handover.
“What time then do we have to scrutinize the handover notes? How can we plan when we do not even know which projects they have, the ones completed and those outstanding? How can we plan when we do not even know how many barrels of oil are sold per day?”
