The All Progressives Congress, APC, has condemned the attack unleashed on the Edo legislators’ quarters last Saturday, October 11, 2014.
In a statement issued by Lai Mohammed, APC’s National Publicity Secretary, the party maintained that “the attack had raised the level of impunity under President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration to a level not even contemplated in the days of military rule.”
The statement added that, “Governor Adams Oshiomhole said the government got intelligence report on the attack and informed the State Police Commissioner. Instead of sending reinforcement to prevent the attack, the few policemen attached to the quarters were withdrawn.”
The party said further that considering the ease with which the hoodlums invaded a facility that ought to be well secured and the sufficient time they had to damage over 30 cars and inflict injuries on legislators and their families, it was obvious that the attack was carried out with the collusion of an increasingly-partisan police.
