The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has mocked the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress, (APC) Asiwaju Bola Tinubu saying he has become disoriented by the PDP’s Abubakar Atiku’s presidential campaign flag-off in Uyo, Akwa-Ibom State, on Monday.
According to the PDP, APC presidential candidate was dazed by the “popularity” of the PDP flag bearer, Atiku.
The main opposition party made this assertion in a statement signed by the PDP’s National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba.
The PDP also claimed that Tinubu is not eligible to contest elections.
His words, “Nigerians were again appalled and sickened by the lack of depth being exhibited by the presidential candidate of the tottering All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as reflected in his recent utterances against other political parties.
“While Asiwaju Tinubu has proven to Nigerians that he is incapable of serious presidential discourse, it is nevertheless disgraceful that the APC presidential candidate is displaying such vacuity in the public domain.
“For emphasis, the PDP is a serious political party campaigning on issues and we have refrained from commenting on the many personal, health, academic, ancestry and corruption issues challenging the APC presidential candidate.
“Apparently, dazed by the resounding presentation of the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar at the hugely successful flag-off of our presidential campaign in Uyo, Akwa-Ibom State, on Monday, October 10, Asiwaju Tinubu has become disoriented.
“If there is any party that can be described as a “termite party”, of course, it will not be the PDP which is fully “ARTICULATED” and soaring with its campaign but the doomed APC that is crawling, having become legally crippled and no longer a legitimate and valid vehicle to field candidates in the 2023 general elections.
“This explains why the APC cannot constitute a campaign council, let alone flagging off its campaign.
“Though the APC presidential candidate has demeaned himself before Nigerians, the PDP as a decorous Party will still refrain from commenting on the issues of his personal health.
“Since he procured the APC ticket, the APC presidential candidate has not made any meaningful comment or contribution to serious national issues, instead he has been engaging in illogical, incoherent and fatuous utterances.
“Our Party cautions Asiwaju Tinubu to advise himself, guard his utterances, face his many legitimacy and disqualification issues and stop making himself an object of public ridicule.
“What is expected of Asiwaju is to apologise to the nation for the woes and suffering brought upon Nigerians by the misrule of the APC, which he helped to install and for which Nigerians hold him personally responsible.
“The APC presidential candidate should come to terms with the fact that Nigerians have moved on with the PDP and Atiku Abubakar as their next President given Atiku Abubakar’s established focus, integrity, experience, capacity and readiness to lead the mission to Rescue and Rebuild Nigeria from the monumental failures and misery that the APC represents,” he said.
