Some Nigerians have slammed the National Leader of the All
Progressives Congress, APC, for misleading the general public via his comment
claiming that the Permanent Voters Card, PVC can expire.
Recall that the Asiwaju of Lagos had on Tuesday
told some of his supporters he hosted in the Federal Capital Territory to
register ahead of the 2023 presidential election because their PVCs had
expired.
The comment, however, did not go down well as Nigerians
stormed the social media to lambast the presidential aspirant for misleading
the general public.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) also
swiftly countered the claim, warning Nigerians against heeding his advice.
But Tinubu’s media outfit, in a statement on Wednesday,
apologized to Nigerians over the comment, saying “he mistakenly used the word
‘expire’ instead of stating that the cards may have to be updated”.
The apology triggered more reactions as many Nigerians
slammed the 2023 presidential aspirant for misleading the entire public, saying
everything about him is wrong.
Other reactors opined that his wrong comment and the
controversial discrepancy surrounding his real date of birth is enough signal,
showing his incompetence to rule Nigeria.
Below are some of the reactions compiled from Facebook.
Moses Wamanyi: “Nigeria my country, you have started
apologising even when you have not gotten there. We don’t want a president that
is always apologising because it shows that you would fake everything you
promise and then later apologize”.
Emeka Egeonu: “Dementia is incurable but can be managed with
the help of family members. Tinubu should retire in peace and learn how to play
with his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He is over 80 years and still
struggling to be our president. Who do us this jazz for this country Biko? Na
waoooooo”
Kweku Is’haq: Another liar again. Nothing like “the cards
may have to be updated” in the context of his principal’s statement. The PVC
does not need an update. it is just an option for the holder to either
review/update his/her details if he/she feels there are some important changes
between when he/she registered and now.
“This is a clear signal that you cannot become Nigerian
President. If you start lying from now, what will you do when you get there”?
Cletus Omale: “You are wrong in everything sir, wrong in
your information about PVC, wrong about your age declaration, wrong in your
first pre-campaign utterances (starting from where Buhari stop) Finally sir, I
think is the wrong time also for you to contest for president of this country
because everything is very wrong with you”.
Godwin Umoh: You have already made us know that all the
promises you are going to make during the campaign are lies. E go bi voice mail
too. Sorry”.
