APC Leaders Looting Nation’s Treasury To Fund Luxury Appetite – PDP

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) leaders of looting the nation’s treasury to fund their luxury appetite and consumption.

Naija News reports that the APC national spokesperson, Felix Morka, had recently claimed that the Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, was engaging in reckless executive flippancy at the expense of the job he was elected to do as governor.

Morka also said members of the PDP should take full responsibility for their disgraceful failure to handle the party’s implosion and decay.

He made the remarks while responding to Makinde’s advice to members of the PDP to unite against external forces impeding a strong, unified opposition ahead of the 2027 elections.

However, the PDP spokesperson, Debo Ologunagba, in a statement issued on Monday said the attack on Makinde confirms that the APC is jittery that its days are numbered as Nigerians have seen through its lies and crass incompetence in governance.

Ologunagba stated that the APC is resorting to manipulation of data, politicizing issues and hurling verbal attacks on outspoken Nigerians amidst worsening insecurity and biting economic hardship.

He added that APC government has failed and would not last beyond 2027 as the PDP and Nigerians will send them into political oblivion.

The statement read, “The attack on Governor Makinde also confirms that the APC is jittery that its days are numbered as Nigerians have seen through its lies, subterfuge, falsehood, suppressive policies and crass incompetence in governance.

“Governor Makinde remains a credible and effective leader with astonishing record of performance not only in prioritising the needs of the people of Oyo state as evident in the numerous development projects in the state but also working with other governors elected on the platform of the PDP in the quest for development, sustenance of democracy and resistance to APC’s scheme to turn Nigeria into a One-Party State.

“It is indeed an assault on the sensibility of Nigerians that in the midst of worsening insecurity, biting economic hardship, widespread hunger and starvation, comatose infrastructure, crippled productive sector, weakened currency, closure of millions of businesses with over 36 percent unemployment rate, hopelessness and general despondency all occasioned by the irresponsible anti-people policies of the APC administration, the APC is living in alternate reality, arrogantly claiming that Nigeria is ‘on the cusp of prosperity’.

“More distressing is that while Nigerians are experiencing harrowing hardship, corrupt APC leaders are busy looting the nation’s treasury to fund their luxury appetite and consumption.

“It is, therefore, not surprising that as the day progresses toward 2027, the APC is resorting to manipulation of data, politicisation of issues and personal attacks on outspoken Nigerians as being witnessed in its outburst against Governor Makinde.

“Such attacks by the APC cannot fly as Governor Makinde and indeed other PDP governors are massively delivering on their mandates as being witnessed in the astounding infrastructural, human capital and citizen empowerment projects going on in PDP States to the admiration of Nigerians. Indeed, PDP States continue to be Oasis of Development compared to APC-controlled States.

“APC should accept failure and come to terms with the fact that its lifespan in the face of abysmal failure in governance cannot last beyond February 2027 when the PDP and Nigerians will send it to political oblivion where the APC contraption truly belongs”.
