The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) says the confusion in the All
Progressives Congress (APC) National Executive Committee (NEC) is a
clear reflection of the chaos and disorderliness that is the hallmark of
its government.
The party said the executive flip-flops by President Muhammadu Buhari
and his interferences in the internal running of the party, has further
exposed the raging impunity, primitive impositions and other
undemocratic tendencies in the APC.
PDP National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, in a statement on
Tuesday, said it is clear that the APC went into a chaotic mode
following the renewed interest of Nigerians in the rebranded PDP.
The confusion in the APC also directly explains why our country has been
in shambles in the last three years. There is no way a party which
cannot conduct its affairs in a democratic norm will be able to function
in government.
We are therefore not surprised that President Buhari went back to his
party’s NEC and ordered members to reverse earlier decisions, which they
had claimed conformed with the provisions of their constitution.
It is amazing that a party, which boasts of belonging to the progressive
bent, does not even understand its own rules or the applications
thereof. In one breath, the party sought the elongation of tenure for
its officials and then in another breath it reversed itself.
Nigerians are no longer at loss as to the reasons for failure of
governance, policy summersaults and gross incompetence that have brought
our nation to its knees in the last three years.
Our takeaway in all these is that the APC is a complete disaster and we
urge all democrats still trapped in this sinking ship to immediately
exit and join other good-spirited Nigerians in the rebranded and
repositioned PDP to make life better for our people.
