Stop acting like a rebel group, PDP tells APC
The Peoples Democratic Party has counseled the All Progressives Congress to jettison “all undemocratic and anti-people tendencies” and imbibe the opportune comportment as an opposition party in a democratic setting.
PDP National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh, in a verbal expression on Thursday in Abuja, verbally expressed with its incipient leadership, Nigerians expected an incipient comportment from the APC, integrating that the opposition party “must understand that it is not a revolter group and as such must throw over-board all actions and tendencies that portray it in that light.”
Metuh verbalized, “Nigerians of all walks of life have perpetuated to express worry over the character of the APC as an opposition party.
“The APC must realize that in a democracy, being an opposition party demands a great responsibility marked by constructive engagement and propagation of alternatives in the general interest.
“The APC must be advised to undertake a survey of how other opposition parties conduct themselves. Being an opposition party does not in any way confer a culture of irresponsibility; being an opposition party does not in anyway confer a license for promotion of violence; and being an opposition party does not confer utilization of blackmail and falsehood as denotes of achieving political control.”
He verbalized Nigerians were no longer comfortable with an opposition driven by frustration and acerbity; characterized by a compulsive penchant for prevarications and deceit.
He verbalized Nigerians would not optate an opposition that has no regard for the national interest but comport as if it has no stake in the Nigerian project, integrating that Nigerians would optate an opposition that he verbalized would purposefully engage on issues with integrity and veracity and not with falsehood and deceit.
Metuh noted that despite its change of leadership the APC has perpetuated with its culture of prevarications, integrating that “there is nothing in the last one week that shows that they are inclined to jettison this despicable and unpatriotic stance.”
Insisting that the APC does not have the interest of the nation at heart, the PDP spokesperson likened the actions of the APC to that of the Biblical woman who he verbalized, out of frustration, pressed King Solomon to kill and divide the baby of an innocent mother for no just cause.
“We however wish to apprise the APC that Nigerians will not succumb to their antics. Nigeria will never break up. We shall remain one vigorous indivisible nation under God where all thrive together in love, while on the other hand, the ever chameleonic APC will perpetuate to merge, de-merge and lose its identity and composition,” he integrated.
