ABUJA, Nigeria – The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has sternly cautioned the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, not to draw himself out by joining in the smear campaign and unsavoury comments against its Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.
Asiwaju, as an elder, should not reduce his pedigree by engaging in indecorous utterances which has become the trademark of his dysfunctional party. It is also instructive to state that a person of Asiwaju status can conduct his political activities without recourse to indecent language that is lacking in respect for a personality, such as Atiku, whom Nigerians, across board, have generally resolved to be their next President.
For the avoidance of doubt, despite the ludicrous disposition of APC and its leaders towards the 2019 Election campaign, the repositioned PDP and our presidential candidate remain committed to our promise to focus on solutions to the myriad of problems facing our people and transform their lives for the better.
The PDP therefore cautions Asiwaju Tinubu to redirect the discourse of his party to productive issues instead of this unbridled resort to lies, deception, beguilement, propaganda, smear campaign and uncouth language, which Nigerians now resent.
PDP Condemns Invasion of Its Ekiti Secretariat
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) also condemned in strong terms the invasion of the Ekiti State secretariat of the party by hoodlums, vowing to investigate the invasion with a view to exposing and sanctioning anyone found to be involved directly or indirectly in the disruption of the smooth running of its activities in Ekiti.
“The National Working Committee of the party reiterates its confidence in the Chief Gboyega Oguntuase-led Exco in our Ekiti State chapter and our members in the State must avoid anyone fanning embers of discord in our fold”, the PDP said, and called on the police to assist in fishing out and arresting the hoodlums that invaded our secretariat as well as secure the premises against further invasion.
