For APC, the Bell Tolls


The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has noted the frenzied moves by the All Progressive Congress (APC) to create disaffection among our members, distract our great party, and divert the attention of Nigerians from the colossal failure of its government.


 Having woefully failed to stop the PDP elective National Convention, a desperate APC has again failed in another bid to plant seeds of discord within the ranks of our members in the Southwest, particularly on issues relating to the outcome of our hugely successful  National Convention.


The people of the South West have, however, seen through the antics of the APC propaganda machine and  would not allow themselves be deceived.


The South West leaders who contested for the PDP National Chairmanship position are all men of quality and credibility; the fallout of the convention cannot, in any way,  diminish their standing as core nationalists and statesmen whose interests, particularly in the PDP, and the nation, are not driven by personal or ethnic considerations.

 

What essentially drives the individual and collective aspirations of the Southwest leaders in the PDP remains in tandem with the vision of other leaders of our party across the country, which is to rescue our dear nation from the directionless administration of the APC with its attendant economic hardship on Nigerians.


In fretting, the APC does not seem to realize that people in the Southwest are as much victims of its misrule as other Nigerians. Those in the Southwest suffer from the current shambolic state of the economy which the APC administration has inflicted on the nation; they groan from the APC’s negative policies on foreign exchange as well as the heavy taxations that are killing industries and businesses; they suffer the misery in the land resulting from the spiral rate of inflation, decline in the stock market and decayed infrastructure.


The APC’s attempt to plant seeds of discord among our members in the South west merely betrays their fears of losing control of the region.


 The southwest is too sophisticated to fall for the gimmicks of the APC. They cannot be distracted or deceived by baseless propaganda and cheap resort to ethnic politics. The Southwest will not fail to join other despairing Nigerians in voting  out the APC in the 2019 election.


The truth is that the APC administration, having wrecked the country, is resorting to shadow boxing to stay afloat; Nigerians are, however, impatient to kick them out.


The APC must note that their exit has become inevitable. They must note that the more they fight the PDP,  the more united we become and the more Nigerians see through their deception and emptiness. 


Today, many are leaving their ranks in droves. Very soon their party will be empty and its collapse will be loud.


For the PDP, we remain one big family committed to credible processes that guarantee internal democracy in our party. Our leaders have since revved our internal conflict resolution mechanisms to pacify those disaffected by the outcome of our convention and consultations in this direction are yielding tremendously positive results.


 Finally, the PDP assures all Nigerians not to despair as we have now repositioned to provide direction and return the nation back to the path of unity and prosperity: a nation where citizens live without fear of molestation by those with the apparatus of state power.
