The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has asked the All Progressives
Congress, APC, to be more concerned with the ‘quarrels’ among its
leading members, rather than throw jibes at the ruling party.
The PDP’s statement on Monday was a response to the claim by the
opposition Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN, a member of the APC, that
the ruling party was jittery of its merger.
The PDP spokesperson, Olisa Metuh, said in a statement that “our
attention has been drawn to a statement sponsored by opposition Action
Congress of Nigeria, ACN in which it once again engaged in vicious
attack on the PDP.”
Mr. Metuh said the ACN statement is a mere cover-up for the
divisions, quarreling and dissensions that marred their Monday meeting
in Abuja.
“Instead of unnecessarily attacking the PDP, the ACN and its
co-traveller, the Congress for Progressive Change, CPC should be bold
enough to tell Nigerians the outcome of their meeting where their
members were sharply divided over comments by their leader, General
Muhammadu Buhari, condemning the decision by the Federal Government to root out insurgency in the country and describing it as an attack on the north,” the statement said.
PDP allege that many APC members have now realized that they are in
the wrong boat “captained by insensitive religious and tribal bigots”.
According to the statement, what happened at APC’s meeting “vindicate
the PDP which has continued to caution Nigerians against being deceived
by wolves parading themselves as saviors”.
“In any case, it is clear that the opposition parties have nothing to
offer. The barking of 20 dogs can never scare an elephant. These
frustrated tribal cum religious associations can never be equated to a
national party,” the PDP said.
