2027: Don’t blame us for implosion within PDP, APC replies Makinde 

 

All Progressives Congress has advised Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, to stop pointing fingers of acorn at it for the internal dissension within the Peoples Democratic Party. Nigerian Tribune reports.

APC admonition was on the heels of remarks attributed to Governor Makinde at the weekend where he accused the APC as mastermind of the leadership crisis rocking the erstwhile ruling party.

The APC National Publicity Secretary, Barrister Felix Morka, in a statement on Sunday, declared that chieftains of the PDP should take responsibility for what he called implosion within the main opposition party.

“Speaking at a recent event in Ibadan, Makinde blamed the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the turmoil in his People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and other opposition parties. At the same time, Makinde bragged that a decision to cooperate with his Osun counterpart to advance the interest of his moribund party in south-west Nigeria would be beyond the influence of APC. If Makinde knew how best to keep APC’s influence at bay, exactly why has he not executed that strategy for the “protection” of his party nationally?

“Like the proverbial bad workman that blames his tools, Makinde and his co-confused leaders of the PDP should quit pointing fingers at the APC and take full responsibility for their disgraceful failure to handle the party’s implosion and decay.”
Morka claimed that President Tinubu’s administration has transformed

“Our country’s economy and build a solid foundation for progress,” amidst the dwindling fortunes of the average Nigerian also dismissed the 2027 presidential ambition of Governor Makinde as wishful thinking to waste the resources of Oyo State. Makinde’s unhinged 2027 ambition cannot be founded upon his unguarded and unjustified attacks against our great Party or the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu that has launched the boldest and most ambitious reform effort in history to transform our country’s economy and build a solid foundation for progress.

“Governor Makinde has failed to prove himself as an effective leader. His lackluster performance as Governor speaks for itself, and undermines his credibility. Instead of prioritising the needs of the Oyo people who elected him to tackle their local issues, he has chosen to divert his attention and squander the state’s resources in pursuit of unhinged 2027 ambition. Makinde must know that Nigeria’s scale and complexities demand more than his vain and self-indulgent ambition.

“Makinde cannot even speak for the people of Oyo state regarding their future electoral choices or decisions let alone speak for Nigerians. Makinde and his partisan cohorts are only worried stiff that the looming transformation and prosperity from President Tinubu’s economic policies will consign their 2027 ambitions and calculations into the trash bin of political irrelevance.

“We urge Nigerians to continue to stand firm in support of President Tinubu as the administration’s reform policies begin to yield the desired benefits for all Nigerians.”
