The Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) says Peter Obi, its vice-presidential candidate, had an outstanding
performance at the debate for the 2019 polls.
In a statement on Friday, the
party said while Obi displayed an “unprecedented understanding of the dynamics
of the critical sectors of our economy with practical solutions to the myriad
of problems”, Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo “dwelt on false performance claims
and displayed scanty understanding of economic issues”.
The party said Obi’s presentation
showed PDP’s unparalleled preparedness to take over the reign of government and
willingness to return the nation to the path of good governance, national
cohesion and economic prosperity.
It accused Osinbajo of not being
able to articulate any solution or show what the Buhari administration intends
to do differently.
“This debate has further exposed
the humongous corruption in the Buhari Presidency, as Vice President Osinbajo
could not provide answers to the exposed N8 trillion sleazes in the fuel
subsidy regime under the Buhari administration,” read the statement signed by
Kola Ologbondiyan, spokesman of the party.
“It invited Nigerians to note how
the Vice President was jittery and ill-at ease throughout the debate,
particularly as his most of his performance claims especially in food
provision, infrastructure and security were all fictitious.
“Prof. Osinbajo’s attempted to
brand the PDP as corrupt, saying all records and statistics show that
corruption escalated under President Buhari and that his administration ranks
as the most corrupt in the history of our nation.
“Prof. Osinbajo and the Buhari
administration lack every moral standing to speak on social welfare when the
Vice President is yet to explain the whereabouts of the N33 billion meant for
the provision of food and other items for Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs)
suffering in the North East.
“Finally, the PDP awaits the main
Presidential debate and challenges President Buhari to perish the idea of
sending a proxy but to get ready to face the PDP candidate, Atiku Abubakar,
before all Nigerians.”
