Press Statement 

PDP Criticizes President Buhari for Withholding Assent to Sequence of Election Law

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is not surprised that President Muhammadu Buhari withheld his assent to the legislation by the National Assembly, reordering the sequence of general elections in the country, particularly given the tendencies he has continued to display as a politician.

The PDP believes in democracy and subscribes to all its tenets including the respect for the powers of the National Assembly to make laws and to amend such laws as occasion demands.


In the light of this development, the PDP, and indeed all well-meaning Nigerians, now eagerly await the final decision of the National Assembly on this amendment.

As a party, we are not afraid of the 2019 general elections because we know that Nigerians have already rejected President Buhari and his dysfunctional All Progressives Congress (APC).

Against this backdrop, the PDP assures to provide all the members of our great party a level playing ground to choose a Presidential candidate in a National Convention that promises to be open, free, fair, credible and transparent.

We know that with the support of Nigerians, any candidate that emerges on our platform ahead of 2019 will clinically defeat President Buhari at the polls and lead our nation back to the path of progress, national cohesion and a vibrant economy.

Signed:

Kola Ologbondiyan 
National Publicity Secretary

Though i dont like Buhari but PDP lacks the moral right to even say anything as regards this matter. PDP conducted 2007, 2011 and 2015 elections with president and national assembly first and same day nobody criticised PDP. Abeg you people should stop disturbing Nigeria you guys kept Nigeria the way it is today if PDP had governed from 1999 to 2015 electricity, roads, hospital, security other problem would have being a thing of the past, other successive government would have consolidated on the gains recorded but PDP failed Nigerians and APC is following PDP foot steps.

Buhacow is a goner whether he signs that bill or not. May thunder kill all his Media Cows and May herdsmen kill their families. Amen

At the back of one KEKE NAPEP it was written boldly: "Let us pray for President Buhari - Psalms 109:8" When I went home I opened The Holy Bible to check and it reads "Let his days be few; and let another take his
office".
