The All Progressives Congress has asked President Goodluck Jonathan to apologise to Nigerians for the “embarrassment he has caused them over his phantom phone conversation” with the King of Morocco.

In a statement in Lagos on Friday, the National Publicity Secretary of APC, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, said, ”In our earlier statement on the issue, we gave President Jonathan the benefit of the doubt by asking him to clarify what happened, just as the Moroccan King has done.

“Instead, a loquacious spokesman for the President decided to abuse us instead of addressing the issues. That
tells us that, indeed, these people have something to hide over the phoney phone conversation.”

APC argued that based on the antecedents of the Jonathan administration, which it said had little or no regard for the truth, it was safe to assume that the President did not hold any phone conversation with King Mohammed VI of
Morocco.

It added that the party would be glad if Jonathan could prove, conclusively, that he spoke with the King.

The party said, ”Whereas Morocco was unequivocal in denying that its King had any phone conversation with President Jonathan, saying ‘Morocco is surprised at the incredible twist given by Nigeria to an alleged phone conversation that never took place between HM King Mohammed VI and Nigerian President’, the Nigerian presidency has been less forthcoming, instead opting to engage in shadow-chasing.

”Because of this unnecessary controversy over a phone discussion, Nigerians have now been branded liars. This is very serious, considering Nigeria’s standing in Africa. We therefore expect that any serious administration would not have hesitated to come clean on what really transpired, instead of dissipating its energy on abuses.”

APC noted that while its earlier, “measured statement” was borne out of patriotism, rather than partisanship, the “President’s increasingly-rabid, LEADING attack dog” frittered away the opportunity to convince Nigerians that his principal did not just conjure up the idea of speaking with the King.

It added, ”In the true tradition of the Jonathan administration to ignore the message and attack the messenger, those who should bury their heads in shame for dragging their nation to the realm of the abyss simply engaged in their usual pastime.

“It is indeed those who have disgraced Nigeria locally and internationally that lack patriotism. The incompetent and clueless presidency has now further transformed to a lying presidency.”

APC said the global opprobrium, which the Jonathan administration had brought on Nigeria could only be imagined, with the likes of Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe, firing darts at Nigeria, which played a front-line role in his country’s independence, and the militaries of less-endowed neighbouring countries belittling Nigeria’s military,
despite its globally-acclaimed role in the maintenance of peace and security in the sub-region.

APC handlers should sign up for night of a thousand laughs and give Basket mouth a run for his money. Bunch of clowns.

We've had idiot presidents, we've had liar presidents and we've had clueless presidents, only God knows what our crime is that he now punish us with a clueless idiot liar as a president. GEJ is a curse on this country.

The reason why I hate this boko Haramnized party APC is because they don't mind their own business! They castigate others as if they are saints. Meanwhile they scored 100% in the following 'subjects': 1.Terrorism. 2.Corruption eg Thiefienubu, IBB, FoolishShola, Amechi. Insults eg Amechi, Etiebet, Lair Mohammed. 3. Coup Plotting eg Buhari. APC go sit down!

I pity u

Bunch of hypocrites. Did APC apologise to the nation when they told the world that Ekiti election was rigged through PHOTOCHROMIC Ballot Papers? Did they say sorry for posting fake pictures of Bonkke crusade and Sheraton interview in place of Kano rally and Buhari's non-existent London interview? APC is extremely dangerous to humamity.

Clowns, bunch of lairs, corruption is what APC dine with.

HURUCHI:



I pity u

I pity your oga, you house boy.
