The All Progressives Congress, APC, has stressed that any attempt by the opposition party, Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to return the country to Egypt will not succeed.
APC, in a statement issued by its spokesman, Lai Mohammed, on Saturday in Lagos, accused the PDP of trying to frustrate President Muhammadu Buhari’s efforts in cleansing the country of corruption and impunity.
”Saturday’s press statement by the PDP is nothing but a thinly-veiled frontal assault on the relentless efforts of the Buhari Administration’s to clean the Augean Stable of the last PDP Federal Government.
”With its statement that is nothing but an unabashed support for impunity and corruption, as well as its major actors, the PDP has now confirmed itself as the official ‘poster boy’ for corruption in Nigeria,” the ruling party said in the statement.
”Neither the PDP as a party nor its spokesman has the moral authority to condemn anyone, least of all a President that is working hard to rescue Nigeria from the abyss to which it has been plunged by the former ruling party.
”For the PDP to brush aside the latest revelation that a government it sired could not account for $700 million from the Sovereign Wealth Fund (SWF), or the fact that the party could not account for billions of Naira in its own campaign funds, and then launch a frontal attack against a reformist government, is the height of shamelessness,” said the APC.
”For the ethically-challenged spokesman of the same morally-deficient party to continue to spew trash under the guise of opposition politics is totally provocative and absolutely unacceptable.
“Worse still, the lack of focus in the labyrinthine statements being issued by the opposition party has confirmed the prescience of the APC’s offer to the PDP’s spokesman to take a crash course in how to speak for the opposition,” Mohammed said.
