Naija News POLITICSWhy President Buhari Is Not Travelling With APC To Campaign For Tinubu – PDP.
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential Campaign Organisation says the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu is not fit to be the next leader of Nigeria. The PDP through its campaign organization spokesperson, Charles Aniagwu who made the allegation, submitted that this is the reason President Muhammadu Buhari has not been appearing at campaigns by the party so far. He argued that the APC would have gotten more credibility with Professor Yemi Osinbajo as its 2023 presidential candidate
Speaking during an appearance on “AIT Kakaaki” yesterday, the PDP said only some selfish persons in the APC are trying to force Tinubu on Nigerians. According to him, Tinubu has clearly shown by his many public gaffes that he lacks the mental alertness to lead Nigeria successfully. He said; “The inability of the APC Presidential candidate to carry on his campaigns seamlessly is a pointer to the fact that he is being managed and that is not the kind of leader Nigerians deserve at this time. “Tinubu is a great leader and we respect him for all his accomplishments and contributions to nation building in the past. “A situation where a Presidential candidate cannot speak coherently for only two minutes calls for serious concern. Keyamo Finding It Difficult To Make Defence The PDP campaign spokesperson added that the spokesperson of the Tinibu campaign spokesperson, Festus Keyamo is already running out of excuses on how to defend his principal. He said; “And that’s why we can hardly hear from our brother Festus Keyamo again because the kind of things he defends is already becoming an embarrassment to the legal profession.” “The other day at Chatham House, he was asked his name and somebody had to slip a piece of paper to him, he couldn’t remember immediately to the extent that he had to read the paper to remember his date of birth, is that the kind of president the APC wants for this country? “I am happy that President Muhammadu Buhari is not following them about in this campaign because he saw what the APC Governors didn’t see what he saw prior to the party primaries when they stopped Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, a man that has demonstrated great intellectualism from clinching the party’s ticket. “And we thank God that they did not progress in that direction because may be we would have had something that looks like a contest in this election,” he added. Stop Using Lagos As An Achievement Aniagwu further challenged Tinubu and his team to stop using Lagos State as a symbol of their achievement and what they can do for Nigeria. In his words, “Each time you ask them to give account of their party’s stewardship they refer you to Lagos. The Lagos that was built by the Federal Government as a former Federal capital? Or is it the Lagos that you will spend five hours for a journey that shouldn’t take not more than thirty minutes? “They talk about the Lagos economy and I ask who collects the tax and does the tax reflect in the lives of the citizens? A Lagos that Nasir El-Rufai, an APC governor had amply described as a living ‘hell’? Vote Atiku He ended by selling the Atiku-Okowa ticket of the PDP to Nigerians, saying the major opposition party is set to rescue the country from APC. “These people don’t believe that Nigeria should get out of the cocoon and so I appeal to Nigerians to reject the APC and all what they represent and embrace the PDP because the Atiku-Okowa PDP ticket is totally committed to the rescue, reset and rebuild Nigeria from the ruins caused by the APC’s maladministration,” Aniagwu stated.
