A chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Dele Momodu, has stated that those claiming that the opposition is behind President Donald Trump’s allegation of genocide against Christians in Nigeria have run out of ideas.
He stated this on Friday during an appearance on Channels Television.
Momodu accused the incumbent government of constantly trying to absolve itself of all blame.
He asserted that the opposition is too busy trying to get its act together and has no time to visit Washington.
“Look, my brother, anyone who sees opposition behind this is just being clear that they have run out of ideas.
“The opposition that is trying to put its act together now has time to go to Washington?
“So anyone blaming the opposition, of course, everything in Nigeria, when it’s not APC, they blame the immediate predecessor, even a man who has gone to join his ancestors, former President Muhammadu Buhari,” he said.
Momodu urged the government of President Bola Tinubu to stop politicising the matter and confront reality.
“If you know of a man called El-Buba in Jos, I’ve been to his church before. He has cried out that Christians are being targeted and wiped out.
“He never said Muslims aren’t being killed, but life has become so cheap that even when 100 people die, the president can still travel that night. No empathy, no sympathy. That’s what the opposition is talking about, and it has nothing to do with politics,” the ADC chieftain emphasised.
