In a recent press release, NADECO USA has strongly condemned the inflammatory statements made by APC’s Felix Morka against Peter Obi.
Morka’s remark, “Peter Obi has crossed the line many times,” has raised significant alarm regarding the potential consequences he faces.
This rhetoric dangerously incites threats and intimidation against Nigeria’s prominent opposition leader.
Moreover, on Tuesday, January 7, 2025, NADECO USA, in a statement from President/CEO Lloyd F Ukwu, Esq., asserted that Morka’s claim about Obi is false.
The organization highlights that Obi’s tenure was marked by notable achievements in governance, fiscal responsibility, and infrastructure development.
These accomplishments receive widespread recognition and documentation nationally and internationally, thereby highlighting their significance and impact across various platforms.
“As a pro-democracy organization, NADECO USA remains committed to upholding democratic principles and the rights of individuals. The organization argues that threats and divisive rhetoric have no place in a civil society. They view the APC’s actions as a strategy to undermine opposition voices and pave the way for authoritarian measures ahead of the 2027 elections.
“Under the leadership of President Tinubu, the APC is seen as escalating a pattern of repressive behavior against critics of its administration.
NADECO USA warns that this is not merely a political maneuver but a direct attack on democracy, accountability, and freedom of expression. Consequently, they urge immediate action to protect these fundamental principles. Furthermore, they emphasize the importance of vigilance and resistance against such threats. Such actions threaten the fundamental values that underpin a democratic society.
“NADECO USA expresses unwavering support for Peter Obi, who has consistently championed democracy, transparency, and good governance. Despite the ongoing attacks, Obi has consistently urged his supporters to uphold peace and follow the rule of law.
Furthermore, he emphasizes the importance of maintaining order and respecting legal processes. Consequently, his message resonates with those seeking stability and justice.
This response highlights the hypocrisy of the APC’s accusations against him for crossing undefined “lines.”
