The spokesman for the All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council took the swipe at the PDP in a tweet late on Wednesday.

His assertion came amid developments in the PDP that saw the camp of Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State pull out of the PDP Presidential Campaign Council with the demand that that the National Chairman of the party, Iyorchia Ayu, must resign.

Reacting, Keyamo wondered how the PDP and its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, would rescue the country when they are unable to resolve the internal crisis rocking the party.

In his tweet, Keyamo said, “The PDP that’s in crises because of its inability to control its billowing umbrella gathers everyday and the first thing you hear them say is that they want to ‘rescue’ Nigeria; like a teenager whose legs cannot find the clutch of a car wanting to drive a trailer! ‘No be juju be that?”

The PDP’s crisis had continued to deepen over the call for Ayu’s resignation over alleged bias and lopsidedness in the party’s top hierarchy. 

Atiku on Wednesday rebuffed the demand saying he lacked the power to remove Ayu from office.

“On the calls for the resignation or removal from office of our national chairman, however, I must reiterate what I have said severally in public and in private; the decision for Dr. Iyorchia Ayu to resign from office is personal to Dr. Ayu and, neither I nor anyone else can make that decision for him.”
