A Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain and former Delta
State governorship aspirant, Chief Sunny Onuesoke, has reacted to a recent
statement credited to Minister of Labour and Employment (State), Festus Keyamo
(SAN) on Bola Tinubu being the best presidential candidate based on his antecedents.
Recall that Keyamo, while speaking as the Media Director,
Tinubu Presidential Campaign Council during an interview on Channels Television
programme, Politics Today, had said Bola Tinubu is the best among the
Presidential candidates and easiest to market to Nigerians.
He added that nobody comes close to Tinubu’s record when it
comes to public service in the last 23 years. He equally said if elected,
Tinubu will continue with the record of Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.
Reacting to Keyamo’s statement while addressing aviation
correspondents at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Ikeja, Lagos,
Onuesoke said it is disappointing that an erudite lawyer like Keyamo who once
worked with human rights lawyer in person of Late Gani Fawehinmi in the years
1999/2000 is supporting Bola Tinubu’s presidential candidacy.
Querying Keyamo on why he felt Tinubu is the best
presidential candidate, Onuesoke asked, “How is Tinubu the best candidate? Did
Tinubu win any award as best candidate like others or are you promoting what
they wrote and gave to you?
“What Keyamo should understand is that Nigeria is not Lagos.
Even in Lagos and other western states, Tinubu had lost a majority of his
loyalists because they have discovered that APC is living in deceit. Tinubu
presidency will destroy Nigeria further. They promised heaven and earth to
Nigerians. Where are the benefits they promised? Rather everything has worsened
under their watch,” he stated.
The PDP chieftain urged Nigerians to shun Keyamo’s deceit,
alleging that APC as a party has absolutely nothing to offer Nigerians except
poverty, bad economy and insecurity.
“They have absolutely nothing to offer Nigerians except
poverty, bad economy and insecurity. These people continue in self-deceit and
unrealistic ‘positive’ speaking. They keep telling us how good Buhari has been
in the face of gross insecurity, abject poverty and massive deaths caused by
ineffective governance. The defeat of Oyetola of Osun State to Davido’s uncle,
Adeleke is a good example of what awaits them in 2023,” he stated.
The PDP Chieftain urged Nigeria electorates to save their
future and that of their children by voting wisely in the forthcoming
presidential election, stressing that having APC continue in power beyond May
2023 will be catastrophic.
“Let us save our future and that of our children by voting
wisely in 2023. Another eight years in the hands of APC politicians is just
unthinkable,” Onuesoke advised.
