The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh, has confessed that it is cold being in the opposition, even as he stressed that some members stopped showing commitment to the affairs of the party the week it lost the 2015 presidential election.

Metuh, who disclosed this on Tuesday during an interview with Sahara TV, 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 out 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”.

The PDP spokesman further alleged that the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari was selective in its anti-corruption crusade, describing the recent probes embarked upon by the government as political lynching.

According to him, “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 also insisted in the interview that the recent visit of President Buhari to the United States was a monumental failure, adding that the delegation that accompanied him on the visit was ill prepared for what was expected of them.

I don't know of Metuh, But I'm really enjoying this opposition.

They (zombies) call us "wailing wailers", Most of us have accepted that name, It's not a bad name, If it were, Bob Marley wouldn't have named his band "The wailers".

But can they accept their own title of "WANKING ZOMBIES"??... Any zombie to answer this salient question?

okay

Metuh is beginning to feel deserted as well......PDP playing opposition... lolzzzz

You think say Lai Muhammed job prior to May 29, 2015 na play play... when dem say make you come take crash course you no gree... now cold don dey catch you.. abeg freeze quick make you die abeg.... Kowa will make a better opposition than PDP

While being COLD, pls don't allow it affect ur sense of reasoning!

What a shameless party.

A party that made corruption the only medium of transacting government business.

A party that made it an agenda to recruit only the most corrupt and vilest criminals into its fold.

A party that cannot lay claim to one single government enabled infrastructural development in its 16years of calamity.

A clog in the nation's wheel of progress.

Rest in pieces!

When Lai Mohammed offered you the a course on how to play the opposition,you refused the offer. Now you saying playing opposition is cold.

You never jam!!

Na real cold go kill am and his co-travelers!

This is the time for us to know if PDP as a party has ideology like they used to say to APC while they were in power, if truly PDP is a party with ideology being out of power would rather strengthen them and not cold like Metuh is admitting already.

When you guys are busy stealing and taking the masses forgranted you never knew it will come to this. Welcome Master Wailers!!!

Of course na since there is no access to the treasury and those who stole are running up and down and lying about being sick. No wonder temitemi is gone, severus the ape is nowhere to be found and eurobomber has been sacked.

God bless APC
God bless Lai Muhammed

And you shall remain an opposition

Rantings of a drowning man.

Na d cold go wound you tire!!!!!
