Former President, Nigeria Union of Journalists,
Senator Smart Adeyemi, has faulted
yesterday’s resolution by All Progressives
Congress, APC directing its members in the
National Assembly to block all legislative
proposals, including the 2014 Appropriation
Bill.
.
The APC had also directed its members, among
others, to stand against the confirmation of the
appointment of the service chiefs and
ministerial nominees.
.
Smart described the party’s position as anti-
people.Smart, who is also chairman, Senate
Committee on Federal Capital Territory said the
move by the APC allegedly directing its
lawmakers to antagonise the PIB; “if it is true,
that is most unfortunate for the party that
claims to be a progressive; to come out to say
that.
.
It is undemocratic, it is unconstitutional,
unbiblical and unislamic position by a political
party in the history of modern politics.”
.
The lawmaker added that “For a party to come
with anti-people politics and claiming to be
progressive; for some of us, in the PDP, we look
forward to an opposition that will help in
galvanising and accelerating economic
activities.”
.
He, however, noted that Nigerians do not want
a party that will add to their burdens, saying
that his party, the PDP is making frantic effort
to salvage the situation.
