The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has said that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) will soon disappear.
The APC called on the opposition to correct its mistakes of the last 16 years by returning public funds supposedly stolen by its members.
According to the ruling party, this is the only way Nigerians will believe that the party is serious about rebranding.
Comrade Timi Frank, party’s acting spokesman, said this in a statement released on November 13, Friday.
He defined the PDP as a sinking party that cannot be saved and which will soon disappear from Nigeria’s political space.
Frank reacted to the .
opposition party’s remarks on the composition of President Muhammadu Buhari’s cabinet, saying that it was a clear indication of the frustrations of a political party headed for death.
The oppositions had condemned Buhari’s cabinet as not being inspirational, adding that Nigerians should not expect any changes.
The statement of APC’s spokesperson reads in part: “A careful look at PMB’s cabinet will reveal a well-marshalled and highly articulated reorganisation of ministries that have competent hands put in place to ensure delivery of set goals and objective of the APC -led government in line with the change mantra of the government.
“What we have in place is a deviation from the past where the PDP -led government constituted a government of convenience, not minding the devastating effects and if the Nigerian people were better off.
“The change in cabinet style will reflect in the execution of government policies for which in few months to come Nigerians will begin to feel the impacts and appreciate the change promised them by our party and president.
“For a party which only placed the resources of our nation for the past 16 years in the hands of select individuals, who entrenched poverty and reduced the quality and standards of our lives, begging Nigerians must not be enough. The must have the courage to return all our looted funds. Only then can Nigerians take them serious.
“The president has manifested through his cabinet that he is serious at revamping the Nigerian economy and ensuring that the wasted years of the PDP must never be allowed to continue. What he needs is the nation’s collective and full support and not the distractions of rebirth- seeking party.”
