APC PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN ORGANIZER’S HOUSE UNDER SEIGE
A combined team of security operatives have surrounded the
residence of the Director of Media of the All Progressives Congress Presidential
Campaign Organisation, Mallam Garba Shehu. The operatives, who were armed to
the teeth, took positions around the house located at area 11, Garki Abuja, as
early as 5.35a.m on Thursday morning. One of Shehu’s colleagues at the Atiku Media Office, who pleaded
anonymity said, “Security men
have surrounded the residence of our director, Mallam Garba Shehu, in Area 11.
They came in several vehicles. I cannot make out which of the security services
because it is still dark here. “None
of them has said anything about why they are laying siege at his house.” It
was learnt that the security operatives were miffed by the audacity of the APC
campaign. The APC campaign which Garba heads organized a prime time interview
for Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), on CNN. It was aired minutes after
President Goodluck Jonathan held a media chat on national television on
Wednesday. Analysts say the CNN interview gave Buhari the advantage of
responding to some of the allegations against him as well as some of the issues
raised by Jonathan. Some of the issues include the shift in the 2015 elections,
the Boko Haram insurgency and the anti-corruption fight.
