The National Youth Leader of the APC, Hon. Dayo Israel, has dismissed as ‘deranged’ and ‘hallucinatory’ claims by the PDP that its unit of vote canvassers, dubbed the ‘Jagaban Army’ was a parallel army instituted to foment violence and rival the country’s recognised armed forces.
In a statement yesterday, Israel said the unit has been rebranded as ‘Jagaban Movement’.
He said the rebranding was out of respect to “national sensibilities” and to lay to rest the “sensational and misleading claims of the opposition party, including its latest irresponsible call to the president to convene the National Security Council over a non-issue.”
