Like A Leopard’s Spots, PDP Cannot Change When It Comes To Money – Keyamo

The All Progressives Congress, APC Presidential Campaign Council was at the weekend seething with rage that just as the leopard cannot change its spots that the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP will continue to mentioned on issues of graft.

Reacting to a  statement by the PDP Campaign Council alleging that the APC is not ready to govern Nigeria, the APC PCC through its spokesman accused the PDP of moving from one scandal to the other mocking the opposition party over the rent allowance saga rocking the opposition party.

In the statement issued by the director of media, Olorogun Festus Keyamo, SAN, the APC PCC said:

“This most outlandish statement, coming from the PDP at a time it has become the theatre of the most absurd in this country, is most ironic and unfortunate. It reminds us of the Yoruba parable of the audacious thief summoning the effrontery to accuse the farm-owner of illegal trespass before the farm owner could raise the alarm.

“Firstly, in the past few weeks, the PDP has entertained Nigerians with scandalous issues that show the party remains a clear and present danger or threat to Nigeria’s treasury and equity. In the last few days, the public space has been inundated with allegations made by no less a person than a prominent Governor of the PDP accusing its National Chairman of being patently corrupt and of collecting a bribe of N1 billion from one of its candidates. The Governor even threatened to ‘reveal more’ if there was a denial.

“Meanwhile, some Governors within the PDP have openly expressed reservation as to the capacity of the party leadership to deliver on its often touted promise to restructure and unite Nigeria when it is getting increasingly clear they are incapable of restructuring and unifying their own party to start with.

“This is owing to the fact that their party has a Northern Presidential candidate and a Northern Party Chairman and also ignored the principle of zoning because its perennial presidential hopeful cannot cede the opportunity to others in the spirit of national inclusion and cohesion, having consistently put his own personal interest above national interest.

“These concerns were expressed by some PDP Governors themselves. It is like hearing from the horse’s mouth. Need we say more? These frank and honest Governors are doing the Lord’s work for us.”
