The
All Progressives Congress (APC) has told the opposition Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) to stop attributing ‘misfortunes’, ‘in-fighting’
and ‘implosion’ being witnessed in its hierarchy to the governing party.
APC
National Secretary, Mai Mala Buni, on Tuesday was reacting to the PDP
National Secretary, Wale Oladipo, who was quoted to have said that some
party members were being “used by the APC, to draw political capital
from the present challenges facing the PDP.”
Buni
said the APC was marveled that the PDP had continued to blame everyone
but itself for ‘its self-inflicted problems’ which, he added, led the
party to ‘the sorry state’ it found itself.
He
said “The PDP now sounds like a broken record with its daily conspiracy
theories blaming external forces and unseen hands for its electoral
misfortunes, in-fighting and mind-boggling corruption charges and
on-going probe of some PDP leaders and the immediate-past PDP-led
administration.”
“The
question begging for answers is: Why does the PDP choose to grope in the
dark while reality stares it in the face? Did the PDP not know that it
will one day pay for the impunity, recklessness and shocking
mis-management of the country's common wealth perpetuated under its
watch for 16 years?
“For
the record, the APC has no hand in the in-fighting and resultant
implosion being witnessed in PDP's hierarchy. Perhaps the wind of change
has blown through the PDP camp and many PDP members realise the need to
embrace and enforce change.
“The
APC reiterates that PDP members who are genuinely inspired by the
APC-led administration are welcome to the APC fold. It is their right to
abandon a sinking ship and join one that is smooth-sailing,” he added.
