Nigerians look up to them now, more than ever before, to<br \/>\ndeploy their patriotism and professional skills to ensure the safety of<br \/>\nlives in our country.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the PDP is shocked by the murder of Mr. Okoringa, a patriotic<br \/>\nand selfless Nigerian, who worked hard not only for the development of his<br \/>\nstate but Nigeria at large.<\/p>\n<p>We charge security forces in Bayelsa state to immediately spread out and<br \/>\napprehend his killers and bring them to book.<\/p>\n<p>The PDP stands and commiserates with the families of Mr. Okoringa, the<br \/>\nvictims of the blast in Adamawa state and the daily bloodletting in Benue,<br \/>\nTaraba, Nasarawa, Zamfara, Plateau, Kogi and other states, which have<br \/>\nbecome the order of the day under the APC administration.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, we urge Nigerians across board to continue to be alert and<br \/>\nsupport one another irrespective of religious, ethnic and political<br \/>\nleanings, especially at this trying time in the history of our nation.<\/p>\n<div class=\"yj6qo\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"adL\"><\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) condemns as extremely wicked and heartrending, the horrible killing of 60 worshippers in a blast at a mosque and nearby market in Mubi, Adamawa state&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":58941,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-62026","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
