The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has said the All Progressives Congress (APC) has resorted to discrediting its just concluded National convention, after several attempts to disrupt it.

What happened:

The APC, in a statement by its spokesperson, Bolaji Abdullahi had criticised the conduct of the convention which produced Uche Secondus as chairman of the party.

PDP’s reply:

While  responding, the PDP in a statement by its Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan said the ruling was already panicking because the PDP has finally united.

He said, “Our attention has been drawn to a statement credited to the spokesman of the All Progressive Congress (APC) Malam Bolaji Abdulahi, wherein he criticized the conduct of the elective National Convention of our great party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

“It is indeed laughable that the APC which has roundly failed in not only managing the affairs of the country but also its own internal issues would recourse to panic mode just because the PDP has succeeded in uniting its fronts by conducting of a very credible elective National Convention.

“We were very much aware of the plots by the APC to scuttle the convention and failing it has resorted to a failed attempt to discredit an elective convention that has been adjudged as creditable, novel and laudable by political stakeholders and lovers of democracy across the nation.

“This unwarranted attack is only symptomatic of a party that has lost control and only clutching on straws for survival having been outrightly rejected by Nigerians.”

PDP added that the ruling party should reminisce on the pains it has afflicted on Nigerians.

“It is important for this spokesman of a failed party and his pack of incompetent members to reminisce on the needless pains and suffering they have inflicted on Nigerians rather than being jittery over the successful outcome of the PDP’s elective national convention,” the statement further read.

“Nigerians have come to discover that APC is a fraud, an organization of deceitful characters who have failed to keep a single of its countless promises made to the citizens.

“It is no longer news that the nation is drifting under APC and the PDP has come to the rescue. We must therefore remind the APC that the era of deceit, trickery and scaremongering, which has been the hallmarks of their government, is gone and Nigerians are just waiting to kick them out come 2019.”
