The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has called for the sacking of the spokesperson for the Presidential Campaign Council of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Festus Keyamo, for allegedly abusing office.
The PDP said this through the spokesperson for the Atiku-Okowa Presidential Campaign Council, Daniel Bwala, at the party’s press conference in Abuja.
The PDP accused Keyamo of using his office as a minister to intimidate government agencies.
According to the PDP, Keyamo “is using the official privilege and powers of that office to intimidate the agencies of the government including going to court and filing a case against the agents of the same branch of government to which he belongs.”

This call was in reaction to Keyamo’s call for the probe of Atiku Abubakar over alleged corruption cases.
Saying the Minister of State for Labour Employment, Keyamo, was using his office to intimidate the agencies of the Federal Government, Bwala said, “We hereby call on the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) to sack the minister for abusing the privilege that he has.”
Also in attendance at the press conference were key members of the Atiku-Okowa campaign council, including Dele Momodu, who noted that the conference was part one of the party’s planned press briefings.
The PDP also called on the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency and the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control to probe the APC presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, over alleged drug-related offenses.
