PDP Mocks APC Over Fractious Congresses, Says It Shows Why Nigeria Is Not Working

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP has mocked the All Progressives Congress, APC over the parallel congresses that were witnessed in at least 20 state chapters of the party last weekend. The PDP said the division that marked the primaries was reflective of the rancour and confusion that the ruling party brought into governance.

The PDP’s National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, reacting to the congresses described them as a harvest of confusion lamenting that APC officers resorted to verbal, physical and emotional assault against one another in the battle for supremacy.

The PDP while calling on Nigerians to reject the APC, said it was “a crisis-ridden, conflict-provoking, and troubled political special purpose vehicle called APC.”

“It is indeed despicable that a party that has the incumbent President of the country could not successfully conduct state congress, as their leaders were seen behaving recklessly and investing heavily in violence; a development that speaks volumes on why our nation has been under the heavy yoke of violence, division, bloodletting and acts of terrorism under the APC watch.

“The outcome of APC congresses in many of the states has shown that it is a party that lacks leadership direction and internal cohesion; a party of unruly people, who are averse to peace, which explains why our country is reeling in crisis under the APC.

“The APC cannot guarantee or give unity, tranquillity and progress to our nation.

“Instead, it has continued to worsen the tension in the country.

“It has continued to show itself as a party that is troubled from within and only waiting to implode at any time.

“Nigerians should be wary of the APC. If the APC congresses turned out this bad one can only imagine the type of mayhem that would characterize its primaries as well as their involvement in the general election.

“The APC state congresses present an unprecedented scenario in the history of our nation, where a party which produced the incumbent President, will have its ranks so torn down in shameful spectacle.

“Nigerians should make a correct interpretation of the signal sent out by APC congresses, which is that the ruling party is a mere contraption and an inchoate body of disparate elements.

“The PDP remains the umbrella party that symbolises the yearning of Nigerians for unity, development, and security.

“The PDP is refocused to rebuild our national fabrics, reunite our people and chart a way forward for sustainable development in our country.”
