APC Prefers Ebola Disease To Continue, Says PDP by MisterLongman(m): 6:20pm On Oct 05, 2014

APC prefers Ebola disease to continue, Says PDP
ABUJA- NATIONAL leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party,
PDP said, Sunday, the national success recorded on Ebola
Virus Disease was because President Goodluck Jonathan
refused to politicize the issue, but took the bull by the horns
through what it termed an aggressive multi-sectoral approach
for treatment, awareness and control to the admiration of all
Nigerians and the international community.
The PDP has however accused the opposition party, the All
Progressives Congress, APC of preferring that the Ebola Virus
Disease in Nigeria should continue, just as it also alleged that
the party was frustrated by the success recorded by the
government.
In a statement yesterday by PDP National Publicity Secretary,
Chief Olisa Metuh, the PDP stressed that the APC has failed in
its attempt to discredit the PDP-led Federal Government as
well as relegate its efforts in the containment of the Ebola
Virus Disease in Nigeria.
Metuh who noted that the APC was unhappy because
Nigerians were presently happy with the PDP-led Federal
Government for “the speed and energy with which it tackled
the scourge and brought it under control, said, “We know that
the APC prefers that the Ebola scourge continued unabated in
Nigeria so as to have what to blame the PDP-led government
for. Now that it has been contained, the APC is frustrated
because the people are happy with President Goodluck
Jonathan and the PDP-led Federal Government for the
proactive manner with which the disease was confronted and
overcame.”
The PDP spokesperson who noted that it was public
knowledge that immediately the disease surfaced in the
country, the PDP-led Federal Government swung into action
and co-ordinated intervention efforts with the Lagos State
Government, Nigerian medical personnel and
international health organizations to bring it under control.
Metuh said, “The PDP makes bold to state that the multi-
sectoral approach deployed by the Federal Government with
the concerted collaboration of the Federal Ministries of
Health, Aviation, Information, Education,mTransport and
other relevant agencies such as the Nigerian Immigration
Service for intensive screening, quarantine and treatment
efforts as well as the massive awareness which ended the
spread of the disease and resulted in its containment in our
country.
“We are also amused by the contradictions in the APC’s
statement in which it also commended the roles played by the
Honorable Minister of Health, Professor Onyebuchi Chukwu in
the containment effort. We ask, is the minister not appointed
and supervised by President Goodluck
Jonathan? Is he not of the PDP? Or is the APC now trying to
appropriate him?
“Apart from concerted collaborations using the Federal
Ministry of Health, it is on record that President Jonathan
released N200 million each to Lagos and Rivers States to help
in fighting the disease, including improvement of health
facilities and public enlightenment across board.
“At every point, the President recognized the efforts of all
Nigerians especially the medical personnel including the brave
and courageous Dr. Ameyo Stella Adedavoh and all the
doctors and nurses who made sacrifices in containing the
virus. It is also on record that at no time did the PDP or the
President relegate the contributions of the Lagos state
government on Ebola.

so if lagos state government is from APC why will they coordinate with FG to fight the scourge. I think he is trying to bring politics into the situation, which fashola speech dealt with during the independence celebration. And that says a lot about pdp-led government on fighting boko haram menace because they will always drag us into politics in all their doings.

[b]Definitely they want it to continue but God pass them. I can describe APC as a group of aggrieved political thugs that have assume a gangerous status to Nigerian institutional democratic health structure. I dont know who is pulsating them to behave this way but if anything is to go by, they seriously misconstrued what opposition is all about. Opposition is not about fighting the government! Opposition is a check and balance mechanism to drive to the part of success. In other words, seek to commend aswell as you critize when the need arouse. Be a critique not an unconstructive critic. Play the victim type, dont threaten the central government, be meek, prove yourself in any related complicity and then love Nigeria's unity first. This is the same country you want us to vote you in and yet every now and then it is about PDP this PDP that. Is PDP not a man-made structure? Is it above human error? My belief is that some APC thinks that Nigerians are fool. Their tactic is to blame GEJ in every single scenerio but it is working in an opposite way in all of us; infact I tend to love GEJ the more even though he is also very annoying. Because my instinct is that APC is using me and my collective sensibilities to truncate GEJ, and at the end I would gain nothing and they will selfishly gain power. Do away with this anarchist mentality and Nigerians will love you the more APC! Pls I am not a Politician incase you think I support PDP. I am apolitical[/b]

Not comprehending a story/news item results in writing 'out of point' or "OP". Even in exams people do same and at times you hear them shout 'paper!' At the end it is failure.
