PDP Mocks: Buhari Doesn’t Know By-Election Results

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has chided President Muhammadu Buhari for resorting to what it Monday claimed as false poll sweep claims on the December 5 bye-elections, describing it as another desperate measure to divert public attention from his manifest failures.

The PDP also mocked President Muhammadu Buhari for assuming the role of an emergency spokesman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in a bid to launder the image of the dying party.

Noting that the president’s action pointed to claims that he had become a lame duck, the PDP said that that could have accounted for the president taking up the job of APC party spokesman.

“Perhaps Mr. President’s handlers ought to have informed him that out of the six senatorial bye-elections, the PDP freely swept three in  free, fair and credible contests, while the APC only muscle the other three in polls that were marred by manifest irregularities and rigging,” the PDP said in the statement issued by party spokesman, Kola Ologbondinyan.

“Moreover, the PDP is in clear lead in Zamfara where the INEC returning officer, Prof. Ibrahim Magatawa, openly betrayed the plot between INEC and APC to allocate votes for the APC and rig the Bakura State Constituency bye-election.

“Such resort to rigging by the APC only confirmed its heightened unpopularity given the failures of its administrations both at federal and state levels, including wrecking our economy and pampering terrorists, bandits and kidnappers who are ravaging our communities and murdering our compatriots in the most vicious manner.

“Indeed, no well-meaning Nigerian can truly support such a corrupt party and incompetent government that have not only failed but has also roundly betrayed our nation, looted our treasury, destroyed our pride as a country and brought so much hardship and suffering to the people in a space of five years.

 “It is indeed appalling that at a time Nigerians expect Mr. President to frontally tackle the escalated insecurity under his incompetent watch, particularly in dealing with the recent massacre in Borno state, he is more interested in praise singing of a party that have been rejected by Nigerians.”
