PEOPLES Democratic Party, PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation, PDPPCO yesterday warned the All Progressives Congress, APC that any hard currency imported by the party and its leaders would be impounded, just as it denied a report credited to the spokesman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Alhaji Lai Muhammed that a plan was afoot to implicate his party with a huge amount of US Dollars being ferried into Nigeria.

In a statement yesterday by the Director, Media and Publicity of PDPPCO, the APC ad its leadership should be prepared to face the full wrath of the law if they engage in such acts or violate the law of the land.

Fani-Kayode who described the allegation as another set of lie fabricated by the APC, said the opposition leaders should let the people know if they were planning to bring in some hard currencies into the country with a view to using it for the coming election, adding, “Once again, the APC has come up with a litany of lies and falsehood. It is clear that whatever affliction has befallen them, it is getting worse by the day, it is irreversible and it is terminal. They are a party that manufactures one lie every minute and seek to sell it to the Nigerian public.

“If they are planning to smuggle large amounts of cash from outside the country because they are broke, they should just say so.

“Whatever the case, if they violate the laws of the land, by trying to smuggle in the proceed of ill-gotten gains from foreign land, we shall meet them at the borders of our nation, we shall confiscate the cash and we shall prosecute them fully, according to the law.

“We do not need to frame anybody up because we know who the real criminals are. May God judge them for their lies.”
