The National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, Olisa Metuh, says that it is cold being in the opposition.

He said it was unfortunate that in the week that former President Goodluck Jonathan lost the election, discipline and commitment in the party waned.

He spoke in an interview with Sahara TV monitored by our correspondent on Tuesday.

Metuh said, “It is cold out here. It is cold because people that have been with you for the past 10 years now decided to change because we are no longer in power. It is cold out here because people allowed themselves to be used against the party. It is cold our here because you are subject to the machination and conspiracy of the ruling party. But in terms of service, being in the opposition renews your commitment.

“The week that we lost the presidential election, some members changed. They are no longer committed and even the staff of the party are no more disciplined because there is no benefit to get. This has, however, separated those who came to reap from the PDP and those who want to really serve. Politics is about service. Those who want to serve will remain.”

Speaking on the anti-corruption programmes of President Muhammadu Buhari, Metuh maintained that the government was selective.

He described recent probes embarked upon by the government as political lynching.

He said, “One thing is clear, there is no group, association or political party in this world where you will not find corrupt persons or those who want to engage in corruption. We welcome the probe of corrupt government officials because we in the PDP don’t condone corruption. If there is any of us who is corrupt, the law must take its full course . You must have respect for the rule of law.

“ What we are witnessing now is political lynching. The ruling party is painting every member of the PDP as corrupt. They are rewriting the rule of law. Everyone is innocent until proven guilty. This is unconstitutional, undemocratic. Our point is that, let the rule of law prevail. You can probe, there is nothing wrong with that but probes should not be the centre programme of any government. What is their agenda for the nation? Probe is diversionary.”

Metuh insisted that President Buhari’s visit to the United States was a monumental failure, adding that the delegation was not prepared for the visit.

Good, that is the reason why the leaders should build the institutions that make up the society rather than building the political parties. It is pathetic that 50% of APC members are former PDP members. Once someone is not with the ruling party, that person becomes irrelevant. Sycophancy becomes the order of the day. As it is in politics, so it is in sports and entertainment industries. Our veterans are not reckoned with in the affairs of the nation. It is 'the winner takes all.
APC would be swaggering now as if they will be there for ever
But as is to PDP, so will it be with them. One day, like a spark of light, they will return to their natural position, opposition. And Metuh's elegy would become their anthem

APC will also absorb you if you wish to decamp.
OR
Do you want to die of cold.
BUT
No money like enjoyed during my brother from another mother and father tenure.

Now , it should be noted that there's a
clear line between respecting a person and
liking them. They don't mean the same
thing , but we Nigerians have taken to blurring
the lines between the two.
we like Our president Muhammadu Buhari.

Metuh keep wailing.

in Lai Voice "don't mind them, there are broke "

The lesson offer is still on..... . Take it before lai change his mind oooh

Mr Metuh its too early for you to freeze,o maa gan pa.

Haha.
Cold without crude power .

See who's talking! Proud looters of Nigeria's treasury who know nothing about patriotic service! It took the firm decision of 15 million Nigerians to kick you fools out of job. The only memory people have about PDP is their pride and arrogance in impunity, and that will remain their undoing because Nigerians will never forget!

Keep dreaming of a comeback!

Eeyah, I pray the cold will not kill you people in PDP o. We need you to be strong enough to stand trial for corruption and then spend good time in jail. Till then Mr Metuh, it's too early to wail about being in the cold.

Please give a call through to Mr Lia Mohammed for 2weeks training on how to be a vibrant opposition that knows is onions.

That's simply life for you, one should simply peat that if God decides to change things it should be in our favour or else gobe is your case

Lol.. Not up to a year.. U guys have started complaining..
What should we the citizens that u guys disappointed big time do?

Pdp needs to reshove its office, its better Metuh serve another role.

Mr Metuh, Probe is not the centred programme of the adminstration. Buhari is simply curbing corruption. Perhaps, bringing corrupt politicians to book and recovering our stolen money for development of this country.

Olisa metuh now grants interview to saharareporters, a one time organisation they ones label ati jonathan and supporting APC.Lol

Tasting a bitter pills of your 16 years medicine.

If it's isn't as cold as a freezer, I wish it gets that cold for you all. For once, good Nigerians who care for the progress of this nation deserve some warmth. Keep Feel the coldness while it last for a long long time.

Enough money no dey circulate in PDP again be that oo!

Too early to catch cold mr metuh

Get hot tea, else the cold go...... U

yea its cold because dias no more money to buy sweaters to help ward off d cold.next time plan ahead for d cold days

Yes, it will be cold, when your power and influence has whittled down.
It will be cold, when you lose your relevance.
The earlier you realise the focus has shifted, the better for you. So stop wailing! You better wake up and smell the coffee.

You see. Why we said PDPs opposition is warped and laced with emotional sentiments??
Metuh i advice u to go buy a truck-load of cardigan cos ur case is Caseless!

No more weekends in Las Vegas, why wldnt you catch cold? When money done evaporate.

Well I have just four words for Olisa Metuh: "Cry Me A River".

Is that reason why they have been wailing. Never knew it was cold when LAI was there. Shebi he told you to come for a crash course so as to make it warm for you but you wailed off your chances.
Cold wailing wailers

Don't mind them they think its easy playing opposition, its been just two months and he is already feeling cold, Tinubu played opposition for 16 years while they harass him all over the place.
From the look of things the looting was the oil that keeps pdp's machinery moving, the heist is over let them play credible opposition or quit politics.
