The Minister of State for Labour and Productivity, Mr Festus Keyamo, has described the Peoples Democratic Party<\/a> (PDP) as a very unserious opposition.<\/p>\n

Keyamo said this while condemning the PDP\u2019s reaction to the judgement of the Supreme Court which removed Mr Emeka Ihedioha as the governor of Imo State.<\/p>\n

The minister during an interview with reporters on Wednesday while attending an event in Ughelli, Delta State described the PDP as \u201c an opposition that is a very unserious opposition; an opposition that is not ready to take but they are ready to give.\u201d<\/p>\n

DAILY POST recalls that PDP in a statement by its spokesman, Kola Ologbondiyan rejected the judgement and queried how Uzodinma who came fourth could be declared as the winner of the election.<\/p>\n

Keyamo urged the members of the opposition party to apologise to Nigerians, adding that their reaction was not only objective but \u2018extremely provocative\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cPDP is an opposition that takes the benefit from the system; from a particular institution and they don\u2019t want to take the downs from that same institution.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe same court that gave them victories and excluded us entirely in Rivers State, excluded us entirely in Zamfara State; is that the same kangaroo court?<\/p>\n

\u201cHow can democrats come out and make such very inciting statement? I think it is an irresponsible statement.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt doesn\u2019t even deserve a response and they need to apologise to Nigerians and to the Supreme Court; it\u2019s extremely provocative,\u201d Keyamo added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
