The Atiku Presidential Campaign Organisation (APCO) has dismissed as fake a document purportedly detailing the campaign strategy of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential Candidate, Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, ahead of the election.

The spokesman of APCO, Segun Sowunmi, who said the fake document is the handiwork of the All Progressives Congress (APC), noted that it was reflective of a ruling party that specialises in manufacturing fake documents


I am sure that if you go through the entire gamut of the APC architecture you will find out that most of them have a lot of fake certificates



The campaign organisation was reacting to a document circulating online allegedly detailing the campaign strategy of Atiku after his meetings with PDP leaders in Dubai, recently.

The document alleged plans by the PDP and Atiku to disparage the President Muhammadu Buhari and his Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, among other things.

Reacting, Sowunmi, who spoke with LEADERSHIP, said the campaign strategy of PDP and Atiku is to unite Nigeria, create jobs, restructure the country and obey the rule of law.

We find it extremely unfortunate that a party that has now been known for forgery has forged an itinerary that the PDP and Atiku knows nothing about. We want to plead with them that they are the ones that got the documents and manufactured it. For a political party that is in the habit of manufacturing fake results, one is not surprised that they could also come up with a fake list of things that PDP wants to do,” the spokesman said.

NEWSAPC Circulating Fake PDP Campaign Strategy–APCOPublished 1 min agoon November 13, 2018By Chibuzo Ukaibe Abuja Atiku Abubakar



The Atiku Presidential Campaign Organisation (APCO) has dismissed as fake a document purportedly detailing the campaign strategy of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential Candidate, Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, ahead of the election.

The spokesman of APCO, Segun Sowunmi, who said the fake document is the handiwork of the All Progressives Congress (APC), noted that it was reflective of a ruling party that specialises in manufacturing fake documents.

For a political party that is in the habit of manufacturing fake results, one is not surprised that they could also come up with a fake list of things that PDP wants to do,” the spokesman said.

He continued, “They might be looking for where we hid our strategy but our strategy is very simple. We are coming to the Nigerian people with an agenda that will liberate them from the lackluster situation that the APC has put us through in the last three years. Therefore Nigerians know we are going to create jobs, open up the economy, unite and secure them and we will be civil about it. Nigerians also know that we will restructure the country and we are going to be serious about it. Nigerians know we are going to build a consensus about our attitude. Nigerians know that we will obey the rule of law and not lock up people in disregard of the rule of law and court orders.

Nigerians know that we have a very serious leader that neither play with words or bandy words. Our leader is not sensational about leadership he rolls up his sleeves and gets the job done. And Nigerians knows that a vote for Atiku will make their lives a lot more meaningful, let’s get Nigeria working again and forget about the APC and their capacity to come up with all sorts of fake things. I am sure that if you go through the entire gamut of the APC architecture you will find out that most of them have a lot of fake certificates

The facade of a warm relationship between the national chairman of the All Progressives Congress, (APC) Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, other members of his National Working Committee on one hand and the governors have finally been exposed.
A party source told Nigerian Tribune that the aggrieved governors in league with some of the members of the NWC are waiting in the wings, seeking for the right opportunity to give the embattled Oshiomhole the same unsavoury treatment meted to his predecessor, Chief Odigie Oyegun


Nigerian Tribune findings revealed that despite the claim of a good working relationship, all is not well between Comrade Oshiomhole and certain key national officers of the APC who accused him of running a one-man show at the party national secretariat.

Also starting for a showdown with the former President of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), are some of the governors who felt shortchanged over his handling of the recent primaries that produced the ruling party standard bearers for elective offices ahead of 2019 general elections.

The exercise left some of the governors in the cold as their anointed for certain positions were sidelined.

A party source told Nigerian Tribune that the aggrieved governors in league with some of the members of the NWC are waiting in the wings, seeking for the right opportunity to give the embattled Oshiomhole the same unsavoury treatment meted to his predecessor, Chief Odigie Oyegun.


The embittered members of the national working committee have since confessed to the aggrieved governors that decisions on sensitive party matters were taken at Comrade Oshiomhole private office at Aso Drive, Asokoro, Abuja, without recourse to the entire NWC.

Chief Press Secretary to Comrade Oshiomhole, Simon Ebegbulem, in a press statement issued at the weekend confirmed the orchestrated plot to ease his boss out of the APC national secretariat.


Ebegbulem did not mention the governors but pointed fingers of scorn at some stakeholders not comfortable with what he called Comrade Oshiomhole’s vision to build institutional capacity for the APC.

He said: “To be clear, Comrade Oshiomhole did not become national chairman of the governing party to bring it down a notch from the pedestal of its 2015 electoral victory let alone to preside over its liquidation.

“Rather, his single-minded goal, from the outset of his declaration of interest in the position, was to deploy his capacity in helping to strengthen and reposition the party as a truly supreme and disciplined political entity.

“Although, it might appear fortuitous to some persons that he became national chairman at the threshold of the 2019 general election; the truth is that there is no accident in predestination.

“We must appreciate the fact that it has pleased the Almighty God to place him in the saddle of APC leadership at this time for a purpose.

“The purpose has begun to manifest in its vast flourish and ramifications: instilling discipline, ensuring party supremacy, promoting due process, dealing with impunity and executive arrogance wherever they manifest to undermine intra-party electoral processes in the states.”


Comrade Oshiomhole further noted that those not comfortable with his resolve to restore party supremacy were up in arms against his noble agenda for the ruling party.

“From the outset, we never expected that those who cherished and supported the status quo, which Comrade Oshiomhole supplanted, would cave in easily under the magnitude of the current political revival that he spearheads.

“Indeed, while the progressives are enamoured of change, the conservatives find it difficult to embrace it. That is the current reality in the deliberate effort to rebrand the APC.

“Again, we were not, in the least, deluded that the process of rebranding or rewriting the narrative of the four-year-old party would be easy. What we are witnessing in the APC today is Comrade Oshiomhole’s adroit management of the strains and pains that accompany the birth of a resuscitated governing party.

“The leadership provided in the recently-held primary elections and the large-scale integrity of the processes are developments that should hence serve as exemplars in the administration of governing parties.

“Indeed, the message therein is very clear that the party, and not pseudo political empires in the states, has the power to superintend the primary elections for the nomination of the party’s candidates in the general election.

“While the party will not surrender its functions, which are constitutionally circumscribed, to any other entities, it will always be ready to moderate the divergent tendencies and mediate the disparate political camps in the interest of party cohesion.

“This is one of the hardnosed truths that the Comrade Oshiomhole-led NWC preaches and practises with an apostolic zeal to the chagrin of some influential stakeholders in the states.

Comrade Oshiomhole envisions an APC that is capacitated to pragmatically build a corpus of leadership and membership that do not only submit to the high ideal of party supremacy but also the credo of party discipline.

These-party supremacy and discipline- are two fundamentals that had been eroded even before the emergence of the Oshiomhole leadership. It is sad that while the national chairman is working round the clock, some stakeholders have thrown selfish political agendas into the mix to threaten the building of institutional capacity for the APC. ”

“These influential stakeholders, according to the grapevine, have begun to mobilise to pass a no-confidence vote in the leadership of Oshiomhole, having failed to impose their preferred candidates on the party in the nomination process.

“Rather than resort to needless perfidy at the threshold of a general election, we call on them to imbibe the spirit of sportsmanship, bolstered by the fact that the Oshiomhole leadership is propelled more by its interest in propriety in which victory for the party could be grounded. The crime committed by Comrade Oshhiomhole’s leadership is its disdain for impunity and circumvention of due process perpetrated in some of the states at the pleasure of some influential stakeholders.

“Overall, Comrade Oshiomhole has not, since stepping in the saddle, taken any unilateral decision in the running of the party affairs. All decisions, so far taken, passed through the mills of NWC deliberative sessions and enjoyed unanimous resolutions. The records are there. History will justify Comrade Oshiomhole and posterity will vindicate him.”
