PDP Mocks Pro And Counter Cabal Protests

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has tongue lashed the All Progressives Congress, APC over the open fight for ascendancy within the ranks of the ruling party saying the fight showed to all that the ruling party to have only been interested in fighting for power.

The PDP’s statement followed consecutive demonstrations on the streets of Abuja by APC members agitating for and against the influence of the cabal of family and friends around President Muhammadu Buhari.

Reacting to the demonstrations, the PDP in a statement issued by its National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Kola Ologbondinyan said:

“The vicious fight for positions as ‘booty’ of a stolen mandate has exposed the ruling party and the cabal in the Buhari-led Presidency as power mongers who are only interested in power grabbing, treasury looting and plundering of our national patrimony and not in the welfare of Nigerians.

“In the past few days, Nigerians painfully watched a reality show of the fate that had befallen them in the past four years, as persons close to the President openly declared that a cabal has been running the affairs of our nation.”

“Nigerians watched as a faction within the power-grabbing APC, in a loud protest in our nation’s seat of power, Abuja, listed the Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari, Mr. President’s cousin, Mamman Daura and his long-standing friend, Isa Funtua as members of the said cabal that have appropriated the Presidency and held President Buhari hostage.

“In a counter-protest, the supporters of the cabal had also accused a prominent APC governor of a North West state and his ‘brother’, who is a prominent former minister and former governor of a South south state, as those fanning the embers of discord in the Presidential Villa to achieve their desperate ambition for power in 2023.

“The despicable scenario is a pointer to the disposition of the APC, as a sanctuary of power mongers and looters, and this accounts for the unpardonable selfish reason the APC and President Buhari’s handlers rigged the Presidential election.”

The PDP further observed that the “shameful in-fighting, dragged to the streets, is a further confirmation of incompetence and leadership failure, which is directly responsible for the painful economic and security situation which our nation has been sunk in the last four years.”
