Oshiomhole Should Tell Nigerians The Truth About DSS Invitation – PDP

PDP Says Oshiomhole Is Hiding Facts

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has challenged the National chairman of the All Progressive Congress, Adams Oshiomhole to come out clean on the issue of his interrogation by the operatives of Department of State Service.

Naija News reports that Oshiomhole was allegedly quizzed by DSS following allegations bordering on bribery as it concerns the APC primaries.

Oshiomhole has however debunked the claim, saying what transpired between him and DSS was not an interrogation.

Kola Ologbondiyan, the party’s National Publicity Secretary, in a chat said Oshiomhole should tell Nigerians whether he actually received bribes from APC aspirants or not.

“If you went through everything the national chairman of APC said about his invitation by DSS and his interactive session he deviated from the fact of the matter. What are the facts of the matter?

“The fact of the matter was that he was invited and investigated on issues bordering on malfeasance and corruption. During his interview with journalists, Oshiomhole tactically avoided the questions posed to him about corruption.

“The position of PDP is very clear. We believe that the DSS invited Oshiomhole particularly on issues bordering on corruption. He should address that corruption issue and tell the media the truth. Until he does that, everything he said is secondary. It is of no bearing and does not matter to the issue at stake.

“The issue at stake is: did he collect money from aspirants seeking the partly’s ticket or not and gave the ticket to the highest bidder? This is a clear case of corruption if true and if the EFCC has taken over the case, to us in the PDP, it is a welcome development”, he said.
