Uche Secondus, chairman of the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), says his party is set to regain its lost crown
as the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has “broken into two”.
On Wednesday, Buba Galadima, a
former ally of President Muhammadu Buhari, led aggrieved members of the APC to
a new faction named Reformed All Progressives Congress (R-APC).
Galadima accused the leadership
of the ruling party of lacking political will. He also described it as worse
than the PDP.
While addressing a crowd at the
flag presentation rally for Kolapo Olusola, PDP’s governorship candidate in the
July 14 election in Ekiti, Secondus urged voters to reject Kayode Fayemi, APC
candidate, whom he said is unsure of the faction he belongs.
“APC is broken into two,” he said.
“Can you ask Fayemi under which
of the factions is he contesting? Because the broom has scattered, the broom
has broken.”
A bunch of broom is the symbol of
the APC.
Secondus, who was at the rally
with members of his national working committee, said the PDP has been
repositioned to take power —starting from Ekiti — in 2019.
“Standing here is the rescue
team,” he said. “PDP will rescue Nigeria from economic collapse, security
collapse, and all sorts of inhuman treatments meted out by the APC government.”
He also blamed Buhari for the
recent killings, especially in the northern part of the country.
“As you can see, killing going on
in all the states, especially Zamfara, Taraba, Benue and the Plateau. How long
can you kill our people?” he asked.
“This country is experiencing
civil war because of the killings, and Buhari and APC is behind it. And by the
grace of God, PDP will rescue this country from the hands of APC. They are
planning to arrest our leaders, we refused to be intimidated.”
