El-Rufai Is In Order - APC Tells SSS

The All Progressives Congress APC has condemned what it called the harassment of its Deputy National Secretary, Malam Nasir El-Rufai by the Department of State Security DSS, describing it as shameful.

In a statement by its Interim National Publicity Secretary, Lai Mohammed, the party expressed shock that the DSS was seeking to arrest El-Rufai for merely exercising his constitutional right of free speech.

It said there was nothing inciting or extraordinary in the statement credited to MALAM EL-RUFAI that there might be violence if the twenty fifteen general elections were not free and fair.

It wondered why the DSS has suddenly found its agility, after playing dead when people like Edwin Clark, Asari Dokubo and Chukwuemeka Ezeife issued a direct threat to Nigeria's continued existence over President Goodluck Jonathan's second term ambition.
