APC To Drag Patience Jonathan To International Criminal Court by umarionation(m): 8:29am On Mar 09, 2015
APC says it has concluded plans to drag the first Lady
Patience Jonathan before the International Criminal Court
over her recent remarks at the PDP Presidential campaign
rally in Calabar, Cross Rivers state where she called on
people to stone anyone who chanted Change around them.
The APC said Mrs Jonathan's comment was calling on PDP
supporters in the state to attack members of the APC. The
party likened Mrs Jonathan to the former First Lady of Cote
d’Ivoire, Mrs Laurent Gbagbo who was indicted by the ICC
over matters bothering on election crisis in 2010 during her
husband's re-election
"Change, as the entire country knows by now, is the slogan
of the APC – the rallying cry of a political party that wishes
to bring hope of greater and better things to come for
Nigeria and Nigerians. “By her statement, Mrs. Jonathan
was clearly calling on the PDP supporters in Calabar to
attack supporters and campaigners of the APC in the state.
Mrs. Jonathan does not occupy any formal office in the
Nigerian government as the position of the First Lady is
not recognised by the Nigerian constitution. But Mrs.
Gbagbo’s case shows the ICC’s awareness of how someone
beyond formal governmental and military hierarchies can
be identified as responsible for serious international
crimes. Patience Jonathan’s incontrovertible hate speech
not only contravened the laws of the land, but also went
completely against the Abuja peace accord jointly signed
by the two presidential candidates, Muhammadu Buhari
and President Goodluck Jonathan – a gesture which is
aimed at forestalling violence before, during and after the
2015 elections. The PDP supporters in the state, who may
not know better, could easily yield themselves to the First
Lady’s admonition and embark on a process of wanton
stoning and other attacks against the APC members.”the
party said
The party says the letter to the ICC is signed by the APC
Presidential Campaign Director and Governor of Rivers
state, Rotimi Ameachi and would be forwarded to the ICC
today March 9th. It also said that the Inspector General of
the Police and the National Human Rights Commission
would also be sent copies of the letter.

Intention to hit is different from actually hitting. ICC is not Islamic. We shall present evidences that APC stoned and sent bokoharam after GEJ, our President and Husband of PEJ in jos and everywhere and PDP.
