APDA Leaders Steals Star Lager Beer Logo, Says APC Youths Renaissance
All Progressives Congress (APC) Youths Renaissance has accused leaders for the newly registered political party, the Advanced Peoples Democratic Alliance (APDA) for stolen the logo of Star Lager Beer, one of the mainstream brands possessed by the Nigerian Breweries PLC.
The party asked why a political party that tries to assume control over the rule of government at the centre couldn’t think profoundly and turned out with a logo not enrolled by any organization in Nigeria.
The youths said action of the party is a confirmation that they don’t have anything new to offer Nigerians other than reusing corruption using new political platform.
The statement read:
We demand for the arrest of leaders of Advanced Peoples Democratic Alliance (APDA) for the fraudulent act of using Star Lager Beer logo.
Therefore, as a frontline youths wing of the ruling party, we believe that it is our duty to protect all Nigerians including their intellectual properties from any form of attack or encroachments.
Similarly, to avoid facing the anger of the World Intellectual Property Organisation and other multilateral institutions like the World Trade Organisation which Nigeria is a member, we are calling on the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the security agencies in Nigeria to as a matter of urgency deregister the new party as well as arrest it’s leaders for breaching the intellectual property laws of Nigeria.
Failure to act within the stipulated time frame as enshrined in our laws, we will be forced to seek redress in the court on behalf of the Nigerian Breweries PLC.
