The All Progressives Congress (APC) has ridiculed the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) over its ongoing leadership crisis, asserting that the opposition party has shown its inability to manage itself, let alone govern the country.
Speaking in an interview, APC’s National Publicity Director, Bala Ibrahim, dismissed PDP’s chances of regaining power, stating that Nigerians were still dealing with the consequences of the party’s 16-year rule.
He argued that the crisis within the PDP was evidence that it was on the path to extinction.
“Nigeria is still suffering from the rot of the 16-year misrule of the PDP. That party is gone. Are these the clowns people are taking seriously to rule this country again? Believe me, this is just the beginning. We at the APC are enjoying the entertainment,” Ibrahim stated.
He further mocked the PDP’s internal struggles, suggesting that divine intervention had saved Nigeria by removing the party from power.
“The party is not good at managing anything, including itself. What is happening has shown that God came to the rescue of Nigerians by pushing them out of power. There is more to come if you go into the nitty-gritty of their problems. They should come and learn how to play politics in our APC Progressive Institute set up by our National Chairman, Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje. They will be taught how to play politics without bitterness.”
Responding to accusations by some PDP members that the APC was behind their party’s unresolved crisis, Ibrahim dismissed the claims as baseless.
“How is the APC responsible for the crisis at Wadata Plaza (PDP headquarters in Abuja)? We are not even staying close. So, how can they blame us for their woes? What does APC have to do with having two different secretaries and two chairmen or whatever they seem to have?
“They simply don’t know how to administer anything, and they cannot. Who among the protestants is a card-carrying member of the APC? Who among the people causing the crisis is claiming allegiance to APC? None. It is within them.”
