President Muhammadu Buhari has urged the All Progressives Congress (APC) not to allow the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to drag the country backwards by affording them the opportunity to return to power.

Addressing delegates at the national convention of the the  party  early Wednesday morning, he recalled that the APC inherited a country where a vast swathe of land was under insurgency and infrastructure decay and a nearly dead economy despite crude oil selling above $100 per barrel for years.
