POLITICS Election: APC Makes U-turn, Congratulates PDP by NENigeria(m): 11:36am On Dec 12, 2017 |
The All Progressives Congress, APC, has congratulated the new chairman, Uche Secondus, and other newly-elected officials of the main opposition, Peoples Democratic Party. The national chairman of APC, John Odigie-Oyegun, said the ruling party “wholeheartedly welcome” opposition and hoped Mr. Secondus would use his “experience garnered over the years to ensure that the PDP assumes its role as a responsible opposition Party in the country”. “Our Party wholeheartedly welcome opposition because we believe that democracy cannot thrive without a vibrant but responsible opposition that puts the nation first,” Mr. Oyegun-Odigie said in a statement Tuesday. “This will often challenge you to balance partisan interests with overall national considerations.” The cordial remarks came two days after both parties clashed over the PDP’s elections, characterised by allegations of rigging and manipulation. Shortly after the polls, the APC said in a statement on Sunday that the exercise exposed the opposition party as a platform with corruption in its DNA. “The abnormalities that trailed the PDP National Convention have further exposed the PDP as a Party not ready and willing to change,” the ruling party said through its spokesperson, Bolaji Abdullahi. “Indeed, the PDP has once again displayed itself to the generality of Nigerians that it is a Party with corruption deeply rooted in its DNA.” The PDP responded in like manner, labeling the ruling party as an organisation of fraudulent characters that had repeatedly deceived and lied to Nigerians. “Nigerians have come to discover that APC is a fraud, an organization of deceitful characters who have failed to keep a single of its countless promises made to the citizens,” the National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Kola Ologbondiyan, said in a statement. But in a statement he personally signed, Mr. Oyegun-Odigie expressed his willingness to engage Mr. Secondus “robustly in an atmosphere devoid of acrimony and rancour”. “I believe that working together we can both elevate the language and temper of politics in our country, thereby providing the enabling environment for democracy to thrive in our country,” he said.

After they've been put in their place. You are afraid to conduct a convention in your own party, but you make it your business to criticize others who dared to. 2 Likes |

dukie25: They did not have a choice. A party that cannot organise a convention despite being in power at the federal level since three years. All Poverty Congress, APC should hide their heads in shame for their dictatorial ways of imposing candidates. That was how we ended up with barawo bubu and his 40 thieves cabal after the man was declared as expired in 2011. www.nairaland.com/attachments/2080663_olee_jpeg50ac2c9e26795655ae17af1287062b25 2 Likes 1 Share |

Recent outbursts from APC and its major stalwarts just showed that a panic mode have set in because of two things: 1.Atiku's defection from the APC & likely many other to come. 2.The successful PDP national convention. |

Under Jonathan, Nigerians were slightly bothered about governance because they were living fine. I'd take pdp over apc anyday. |

Smart move. APC and all its stalwarts are born for opposition not ruling, but because of public outcry they quickly made that U turn and congratulated PDP. They're not meant for country leadership, and they even suck as an opposition. Good for nothing party. |
