The Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) Presidential Campaign Council in Ekiti State has said that if not for
lack of conscience, those still supporting the re-election of President
Muhammadu Buhari will go to bed last night, covering themselves with blanket of
shame after seeing the President’s scandalous performance on NTA programme,
‘The Candidates.’
The State Campaign Council
Director of Media and Publicity, Lere Olayinka, in a statement on Thursday
morning, ,said, “almost all questions had to be interpreted to the President
while he talked off-point throughout; answering no question appropriately to
the extent that Vice President Yemi Osinbajo became so embarrassed and agitated
that he tried to help him answer questions that was asked him.
“It was so terrible that the
moderator had to tell the Vice President to allow President Buhari to talk for
himself.”
Olayinka, who said it was sad
that those promoting the President knew even in 2015 that he lacked both mental
and physical capacity to run a local council not to talk of a country of over
200 million people lamented that, “the only reason the cabal running the country
wants
him to remain in office is to
guarantee their 2023 presidential ambition and access to the national
treasury.”
He challenged those still
supporting the President’s second term bid to in all honesty tell Nigerians why
the same Buhari that they saw on NTA last night should continue as president.
“They should tell Nigerians how a
man who could not comprehend anything on that live programme except when it had
to do with promoting nepotism should keep running the affairs of Nigeria.
“In saner climes, after his
disastrous performance on The Candidates last night, President Buhari’s will be
asked to go home and rest. But because they are selfish and wicked, they will
pretend that the NTA programme never happened just as they pretended in 2015
when the President was calling APC ‘All Progressives Confidence’, ‘INEC
Independent Nigeria Electoral Commission’, Osinbajo ‘Osunbade’ and Imo State
‘Ibo’ State.
“They also saw him in 2015 when
he was talking about Deutsche Mark that was last spent in Europe in 1999 as
currency being used in Germany, referring to Angela Merkel as President
Michelle and Germany as West Germany. But they will never mind the
international embarrassment that he has become as long as their hold on power
is sustained and their 2023 presidential ambition is guaranteed.”
While saying that the President
has never hidden his support for corrupt elements in his party, Olayinka said;
“To further demonstrate the hypocrisy in his so-called fight against
corruption, when asked about the Kano State Governor, Ganduje’s bribery scam,
President Buhari responded by saying; “Hopefully, by the time I go to Kano for
my campaign, I will have the information,” but at the same time tried to
discredit the video exposing the bribery scandal.
He said; “Nigerians, especially
the people of Ekiti should take their time to see the video of The Candidates
edition of yesterday and challenge anyone coming to preach reelection of the
president to them if they will hand the running of their personal business to
someone who has proven to be unconscious of happenings around him.”
