Pro/Counter Kyari Protests: PDP Engaged In Idle Talk – APC

The All Progressives Congress, APC has accused the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP of engaging in idle talk in its assertion of infighting within the ruling party.

The PDP had earlier on Saturday claimed that the demonstrations for and against the cabal of friends and family of the president indicated that the APC only came to power to grab power.

But responding to the claims in a counter statement, the APC through its national publicity secretary, Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu accused the opposition of idle talk as it dared the PDP to engage it on governance issues.

The APC said:

“PDP’s allegation of ‘infighting’ within the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Presidency over appointments is the latest of shameful interventions of PDP in our nation’s affairs.

“The party that was sent into a state of shock following the outcome of the National Assembly election is now accusing APC of infighting. The accusation is coming from the PDP that failed to rally its members to support its own candidates for principal offices at the National Assembly.

“Perhaps, to the delusional PDP, it is a sign of division within our rank to successfully mobilize our members behind our candidates for the National Assembly election. In other words, PDP had proved ultimate unity within its rank with several of its members disregarding the directive to vote for its adopted candidates. Here you have a party wallowing in denial.

“As contained in PDP’s latest statement, odious practices like looting, booty sharing and power-grabbing are not practices that the APC wishes to continue from the wasted PDP years. Nigerians voted against these devious practices of PDP in 2015 and 2019 and opted for Change, which APC represents.

We therefore call on the PDP to do better as opposition by engaging our party on issues of good governance and matters that would better the lives of the people. This is the least Nigerians expect from the main opposition party.

“While the APC does not owe the PDP any explanation of the modalities for appointments, we assure Nigerians that the President Muhammadu Buhari administration would always appoint deserving individuals who share our progressive ideals and Change Agenda into positions.”
