President Muhammadu Buhari has
reacted to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) announcement that it is going to
court to challenge his West African School Certificate (WASC).
Garba Shehu, his Senior Special
Assistant on Media and Publicity said it was a waste of time because the record
was available, as well as those of higher qualifications obtained by hard work
and truly merited by Mr President.
A statement he signed Monday
night read: “This certificate story is an old one. As Femi Adesina stated
clearly, it is a settled issue in the courts. To approach the court to pursue a
matter long settled by the temple of justice is an abuse of the judicial system.
It is shameful, disgusting and disgraceful.
“It is clear to all at this time
that the PDP, facing an imminent humiliating defeat wants to sow division and
chaos by seeking the destruction of the institutional structures that support
our young democracy.
“They are attacking the courts
and the police, they are molesting INEC commissioners. They are theatrical in
spreading falsehoods against persons including the President.
“By doing these, they assume that
they can take away attention from the discussions on issues gaining momentum in
the country; the issue of internal security which has been jeopardized by years
of near-zero investment under 16 years of the PDP; the provision of
long-delayed infrastructure which the President is pioneering; corruption to
which the PDP is incurably tied and the sustenance of the prevailing good days
in the economy, a business-friendly government working day and night, creating
more jobs and affordable life for the poor.
“This election isn’t about the
settled issues of certification. No matter how honeyed their sweet words, don’t
believe them.
“Their evil record can never be
washed away. The PDP set a record of murdering opponents of government and
corruption on a scale never seen anywhere before.
“They put the national security
at stake by diverting huge budgetary allocations to service their greed. Don’t
believe their honeyed promises.”
