The Peoples Democratic Party vowed to provide credible opposition to the All Progressives Congress, without propaganda, insults and lies.
Olisa Metuh, PDP national publicity secretary, said on April 16, Thursday, at an FRCN political programme that their party would never insult either the president or the acting office.
He was quoted as saying by Daily Post:
“The PDP is a political party built on values, tradition and utmost respect for democratic tenets. Our manifesto and ideology center on national peace, stability and prosperity and we shall uphold this at all times. In this wise, the PDP as always, will continue to work in the general interest of the Nigerian people.
“We will not resort to insults, blackmail and lies with the aim to distract or ridicule the person or office of the President. However, we must state in very strong terms that we will not allow them to lead the nation astray. So we will firmly oppose any anti-people policy and programmes as may be introduced by the APC.
“We will do this by presenting sound alternatives in such a manner that Nigerians will be the utmost beneficiaries especially on issues that will lead the nation in the path of national unity and development.”
Regarding the recently concluded governorship and State Assembly elections in the country, Metuh lamented over the recorded irregularities which according to him were mostly against the PDP. Thus, the official raised alarm over the future of democracy in Nigeria under the APC-led administration.
Metuh vowed to take decisive actions and pursue PDP mandate in the areas where there were clear infractions against the PDP.
