A frontline socio-political pressure group
known as Enugu Youth Coalition has condemned in it's strongest terms
the recent attack on the campaign office of a factional governorship
candidate of the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) in the
state which led to the destruction of two branded campaign buses
belonging to 'Buhari/Osinbajo Campaign' team in the state.
In a statement released to newsmen in Abuja on
Sunday night, the group blamed the attack on the inability of the
party in the state to manage its internal crisis properly.
The coalition further suggested that members of
APC which have formed the habit of bringing the state to public
ridicules because of its past 'Mafia-like' operations in the
state could be the brain behind the latest attack.
In lieu of such suggestion, the group wondered
why a political party that seeks to represent the people could chose
the season of Advent; a time the entire state is waiting for the
birth of Our Lord Jesus Christ to violently express their political
anger?
The statement signed by Dr. Edwin Obune,
national coordinator of the coalition urged security agencies in the
state to do thorough investigations and publish the names of culprits
so that citizens of the state will know their true enemies.
“For giving the state a Christmas gift of
violence instead of peace, joy and happiness which yuletide season
symbolizes, we therefore ask the electorates to outrightly reject APC
in next year's governorship election in the state”.
