PDP: Buhari Obtained Power By ‘false Pretenses’ by Emekamex(m): 11:00pm On Jun 24, 2015
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) says President Muhammadu Buhari and his party, All Progressives Congress (APC), obtained power “by false pretenses” and are therefore unable to fulfill their campaign promises. In a statement issued on Tuesday by its spokesman, Olisa Metuh, the PDP said: “Nigerians are willing to support and cooperate with the President, but we are worried that the pictures emerging from his presidency and his party do not in any way inspire hope in the citizenry, especially as they have continued to show that theirs is ostensibly a matter of obtaining power by false pretenses.” The party, which ruled Nigeria for 16 years before it was defeated in the 2015 general election, said the excuses given so far for the slow start of the new government are “evasive, diversionary and preemptive… for possible failure in delivering on its campaign promises to Nigerians”.
The PDP said it is “unfortunate that Buhari and the APC, who were privy to the nation’s dwindling economy occasioned by global economic downturn and fall in international oil price, even before the start of the campaigns, chose to deceive Nigerians with bogus promises, only to now resort to excuses after using the promises to secure power at the center”. Metuh said the PDP was dismayed at Buhari’s statement on Monday that Nigerians should not expect much from his first 100 days in office on claims that he met “virtually an empty treasury and huge debts”.
The statement read: “While we restate our resolve to engage only in credible and issue based opposition, we want the President and the APC to note that their plea for patience from Nigerians does not arise, because ab-initio, there has not been any indication that they are actually serious and determined to deliver on their campaign promises upon which they rode to power. “Of course Nigerians are willing to support and cooperate with the President, but we are worried that the pictures emerging from his presidency and his party do not in any way inspire hope in the citizenry, especially as they have continued to show that theirs is ostensibly a matter of obtaining power by false pretenses. “President Buhari and the APC must know that Nigerians did not give them the mandate to engage in frivolous excuses and pleas but to hit the ground running with solutions and quick fixes they promised during the campaigns.
“We ask, is President Buhari’s statement an admission of poor knowledge of national and international economic affairs or does it underscore the lack of capacity and skills by the administration to effectively harness and galvanize resources and potential inherent in Nigeria which has already been nurtured as Africa’s largest economy and one of the fasted growing in the world. “Even if Nigerians decide to wait endlessly, we wonder how much the President can achieve amidst the flip-flops from his presidency and cacophony of interests from his party leaders struggling to enlarge their selfish political and economic frontiers. “How can one reconcile President Buhari’s statement with the recent ridiculous and misleading claim by APC’s National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed that this administration has achieved in three weeks what the immediate past administration did not achieve in five years? “Since after their electoral victory, the APC and the President have continued to expose their lack of commitment towards their campaign promises. “We recall that on May 5, 2015, twenty-four days before his inauguration, President Buhari at a meeting with
APC leaders in Abuja opened the excuse galore when he expressed his nervousness to deliver in office, adducing that ‘Rome was not built in a day’. “We also recall that in their attempt to find an escape route in one of their bogus campaign promises, the APC denied that the President ever promised Nigerians that they will end insurgency two months after inauguration but had to swallow their words after the PDP confronted them with the April 22, 2015 CNN interview where Buhari made that promise. “Indeed, we empathize with the President knowing that the confusion and clear lack of direction in his party have not helped matters, but we urge him to rise up to the challenge, take urgent steps and disentangle himself from the selfish and unpatriotic tendencies of APC leaders, especially given the fact that Nigerians gave him a mandate for which they will continue to hold him accountable. “Finally, the PDP restates that it is eager to see the APC and the President unveil their economic roadmap and blueprint for governance so as to enable us through robust opposition, provide credible alternatives and options for their policies and programmes in the overall interest of our dear nation”

those in PDP think everybody is like them.

Olisa metuh writes as if a gun is pointed at him- no coordination.



The goodnews is, Nigeria has moved from accidental presidency to a prepared presidency.

Rubbish from the stables of the People's Despairing Party, GEJ was disgraced, he was always primed for disgrace, he was first of his kind, first president that the headquarters of the Police and UN are bombed, first president to openly endorse stealing - ordinary corruption they will call it stealing, first president that danced a day after his country men were killed and murdered, first president to cede control of the territory of the country to armed insurgent, first president to give goats(militants) yam(oil installations) to protect . . . so Nigeria gave him a crowning first, First sitting president to be sacked through the ballot box. If PDP for once thought Nigerians - the sane ones - would give control of their destiny to such an individual then they should know Nigerians never though so low of themselves. The fear of Buhari has changed the behavior of Nigerian sick corporation NNPC, and other dead institutions like EFCC and NDLEA, who seem to be up and dong now. CHANGE IS HEAR

Apart from his stint as the ceremonial/nominal head of PTF , in more than 30yrs, he was never involved in any other venture apart from tending to his cows . Expecting so much from a brain that has been dormant for that long is akin to digging a well in the desert and expecting to see water after a few feet
