PDP accuses APC-led FG of sustaining government on lies, propaganda  

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has accused the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) led federal government of sustaining it’s government with lies and propaganda.

The National Organizing Secretary of the PDP, Umar Bature stated this on Saturday while fielding questions from newsmen at his residence in Sokoto.

The former Commissioner for Water resources in Sokoto State said after spending nearly seven years in power, APC is still sustaining its regime with lies and deceits.

“You know people said we did not put the government in power on their toes, we can’t do same, we spent 16 years in power, they have spent nearly seven years now, Nigerians have seen the difference,” he added.

He maintained that APC administration has failed to match achievements made by PDP in 16 years, stressing that APC was able to give Nigerians propaganda having allegedly failed to deliver dividends of democracy to the citizenry.

He further explained that the evil cup of APC is full waiting to pour on ground, saying the day of reckoning is about to come when all Nigerians in protest will vote out the party.

“Let me tell you, when these people were in opposition, they politicised all issues of governance without proffering a single solution to any of them,” he said.

He further disclosed that the current administration is not sincere in handling security challenges bedeviling the nation.

“You know if one is to tackle the security challenges facing the country, you use political, economical and military, when there is poverty, unemployment there is tendency in increase rate of crime.

“See what happened recently at MKO Abiola stadium in Abuja where Nigeria failed to qualify for World Cup, people poured their anger not just because Super Eagles lost but because they were angry because there is no fuel, there is insecurity everywhere, inflation has risen to double digits. So, if Nigeria won that match, maybe it will pacify the anger a little.”

He stated that so far 13 aspirants have purchased the party presidential forms  saying PDP is a party to beat in 2023 election.

When asked how the party would manage the rancour that will emanate after the primaries, he said the party has internal mechanism in handling its issues.
