Aliyu, Lamido Suffering From Defeat Hangover – APC by Nobody: 12:07pm On May 16, 2015
The All Progressives Congress has
accused Niger Governor Babangida Aliyu
and his Jigawa counterpart Sule Lamido
of gettingstuck in the pre-election
mode, urging them to wake up to the
reality that electioneering campaign is
over and it is time for nationbuilding.
In a statement issued in Lagos on
Saturday by its National Publicity
Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the
party described the duo’s “unprovoked
vituperation against the APC and the
President-elect as uncouth,” ill-
intentioned and in bad faith.
”Nigerians have switched from pre-
election to post-election mode, making
the unsolicited advice and the rehash of
the vitriolicelectioneering campaign
rhetoric from the two governors totally
out of tune with reality.
”Our commitment to Nigeria is
sacrosanct irrespective of the state of
the economy, hence we do not need
any cheeky advice from Governors Aliyu
and Lamido. We are not making any
excuses, but we will let Nigerians and
indeed the world know how much the
economy has been wrecked and the role
of anyone in bringing the economy to its
knees,” it said.
APC said, “The two Governors have
forgotten even the role they played in
seeking to scuttle the change that
Nigerians so much desired and for which
they voted.
”Governors Aliyu and Lamido are so
bitter and traumatized that they have
forgotten it was their party, the PDP,
that divided Nigeria along its ethnic,
religious and regional fault lines. They
have forgotten that it was their party
that cleaned out the commonwealth in
its desperation to win at all cost, at a
stage shunning the Naira for US dollars
and helping to crash the value of the
local currency.
”Governors Aliyu and Lamido are also
imagining where they would have been
now had they not betrayed the G7 of
which they were original members,
seeing the group up to the starting line
but cunningly refusing to take off when
the race was flagged off. They made a
wrong choice and lost out and they
must live with the consequences of
their choice, instead of continuing to
snipe at some imaginary enemies.
”The chance to be part of a historic
opportunity to rebuild Nigeria was
offered to the two Governors on a silver
platter, but they chose to put their
personal interests above the national
interest. The fate they have now
suffered is a direct consequence of
theirshortsightedness and selfishness,
and they must accept the full blame for
that,” the party said.
It assured Nigerians that the APC will
redeem its campaign promises
irrespective of the state of the
economy, saying, however, that the
change that Nigerians have voted for
will not come overnight but through a
gradual, painstaking and consistent acts
of good governance, discipline and
perseverance.
“We are therefore calling on our
compatriots to give their unalloyed
support to the incoming Administration
as it embarks on charting a new path for
the long-suffering nation, while
shunning the naysayers who, in their
own time, frittered away the
opportunity to rebuild Nigeria,” APC
said.
