A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress , Mr Cletus Obun, has stirred controversy by admitting that destabilising the opposition Peoples Democratic Party is a strategic part of his party’s political arsenal.
Responding to accusations by PDP stalwart Segun Sowunmi, who blamed President Bola Tinubu’s appointment of Nyesom Wike as Minister of the Federal Capital Territory for his party’s internal crisis, Obun dismissed the claims, stating that infiltrating rival parties is a standard political strategy. He further justified the practice, emphasising that it remains valid as long as it avoids violent disruptions. “So long as it’s not disruptive to become violent, it’s a good political weapon to use,” he added.
