The Peoples Democratic Party Presidential
Campaign Organization, PPCO, has mocked
President Muhammadu Buhari and the All
Progressives Congress, APC, over what it
described as ‘scanty attendance at the
campaign rally in Lokoja on Wednesday.
The party said the turnout “is an indication
that Nigerians are not ready to return him
into office for a second term.”
The PPCO stated that this accounts for the
flopping of APC’s Presidential Zonal rally
held in Lokoja, Kogi state, on Wednesday,
where, it claimed that “President Buhari
could not articulate any clear message,
even as he mixed up figures and statistics.”
The PPCO also berates Adams Oshiomhole,
the ruling party’s National Chairman who,
“out of frustration, took to name-calling,
abuses and hate comments against the
PDP Presidential candidate, Atiku
Abubakar, and other respected Nigerian
leaders, ostensibly in a failed bid to cover
for their failures in office.”
The PPCO in a statement signed by its
Director, Media and Publicity, Kola
Ologbondiyan, said “It is instructive for
President Buhari to note how poorly
Nigerians responded to his campaign flag-
off in Uyo, Akwa Ibom state, as well as his
zonal rallies, where his rented attendees
even refused to wave the APC brooms and
paid no attention to him whenever he
mounted the stage to speak.
“At the Lokoja rally, President Buhari spent
less than four minutes in making a vacuous
address, issued warning to Nigerians and
had to beat a hurried conclusion when he
realized that nobody was paying attention.
“President Buhari however, betrayed his
unsettled emotions when he told his
audience that he was sworn into office on
May 19, 2015, instead of May 29, 2015, a
pointer to the level of incompetence with
which the nation’s affairs has been
handled.”
The PPCO also asks “President Buhari to
end his playing to the gallery on the fight
against corruption and get serious by
prosecuting members of his Campaign
Council, who all have allegations of
corruption hanging on their names.”
Berating Oshiomhole, the PPCO says “the
APC factional National Chairman is so
over-burdened by allegations of corruption
and stealing both as governor of Edo state
and APC Chairman, that he believes that
accusing others and casting aspersions at
the PDP will help him.”
The PPCO reminded Oshiomhole that “he
had to flee the country last year to avoid
being arrested by the Directorate of State
Services (DSS) over allegations of
corruption and had to return after allegedly
striking a deal with agents of the Buhari
Presidency for protection.”
The PDP Presidential Organization
therefore calls on “the National Peace
Committee to immediately sanction
Oshiomhole for his hate comments on the
party and PDP leaders at the Kogi rally.”
Finally, the PPCO “urges President Buhari
and the APC to note that their smear
campaign is in vain as Nigerians have since
made up their minds to rally with Atiku
Abubakar as their next President ahead of
the February Presidential election.”
