The Peoples Democratic Party has cautioned the All Progressives Congress National Leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, to stop playing God, saying Nigerians have the faculty and freedom to determine the leadership that best suit their desires without anybody’s control.
The party also advised Tinubu not to allow himself to be used a second time as he still bears a gross part of the blame for the enthronement of “this incompetent, divisive, nepotic and inherently corrupt administration of President Muhammadu Buhari,” which it alleged has brought the nation to its knees in three years.
PDP National Publicity Secretary, Mr.Kola Ologbondiyan, in a statement in Abuja on Thursday, said Tinubu’s speech, at his colloquium, rather than being a damage of the PDP, ended up amplifying an admittance of the failure of President Buhari and the APC administration.
Ologbondiyan said without listening to the prompting of any politician, Nigerians across the board have taken the liberty to accept PDP’s apology which was made patriotically in the overall interest of national healing, reconciliation, unity and cohesion.
He said, “The PDP watched with amusement as Asiwaju Tinubu struggled with words to appease President Buhari and give him assurances that he can win a second term election in the face of mass failure both in governance and in their discredited, rejected and troubled platform.
While we congratulate the Lagos Governor Emeritus on his birthday, the PDP considers it needful, to forewarn him to study the current ambience of Nigerian politics as it relates to the failures of the Buhari Presidency and the fact that the citizens have since rejected this Presidency and the APC, so that Asiwaju will not find himself swimming against the tide.”
