Peoples Democratic Party on Thursday chided the All Progressives Congress (APC) over ” the theatrical appearance” of its
presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari “in that well produced orchestra earlier at the Chatham House, London. A script well written, a script well acted, all a
truthful lie. The messenger belies the message”.
A statement by Olisa Metuh, National Publicity Secretary of the PDP said “stage was targeted to secure a desperately needed endorsement of the
international community but the world is hardly fooled by theatrics of
desperation. APC is chasing shadows.
“That stage may have lifted the badly deflated morale of the members of
APC but the vanishing performance is incapable of redeeming the forlorn
fortune in the bad sale the APC flag bearer is in the March 28, 2015
presidential election.
“Bottom-line, we wish to urge General Buhari to quickly channel his
message and energies home, meet Nigerians who are choking up with
questions on his capacity to lead. He may realize ultimately too, that
politics in this instance is local and shall be decided locally. The
ultimate endorsement lies with the people of Nigeria.
“We wish to commend President Goodluck Jonathan for boosting the moral of
our gallant soldiers with a visit today to Baga in Bornu State and Mubi
in Adamawa State. His able leadership has resulted in the huge successes
recorded by our Armed Forces in the fight against insurgency.”
