The All Progressives Congress (APC) has criticized the National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Olisa Metuh for his recent comments on the ruling party.
‘You’re free to be bombastic,’ APC spokesperson tells Metuh
The APC urged Metuh to show decorum and stop resorting to the use of crude language to express his grievances.

This was contained in a statement released on Tuesday, September 22, 2015, by APC National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed.
It reads:
“Mr. Metuh, being the spokesman, first for a ruling party and now for the main opposition puts you on the rarefied level of being a role model and a pace setter. You denigrate your office and your party when you use that platform to spew out hate and abusive words.”
“You might choose to be bombastic, sharply critical and even aggressive in your statements, but you do not have to resort to the use of crude language like calling your fellow spokesman a ‘renowned liar,’ a ‘master liar’ or a ‘shameless veteran,’ to make your point. Apart from distracting from the issues at stake, those words reflect more on your personality than on the man you have chosen to skewer, and their vulgarity is stomach-churning.”
Metuh had earlier accused the APC-led administration of President Muhammadu Buhari of exhibiting dictatorial tendencies.
