The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, has urged Nigerians not to be fooled twice, saying that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) deceived Nigerians for the 16 years of its administration, while its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, is also out to deceive them again.
Oshiomhole stated this on Friday in Jos, Plateau State, at the flag-off of the re-election campaigns of President Muhammadu Buhari and the state governor, Simon Lalong.
The APC chairman urged Nigerians to be wary of the antics of the PDP, saying it was only the APC under the leadership of President Buhari that could take Nigeria to the next level.
“Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has started deceiving Nigerians that he would make Nigeria work again. How, when he was among those who looted our treasury?” he said.

Oshiomhole decried what he called the rot in the power sector during the 16 years of the PDP administration.
According to him, with what the APC government met on the ground after taking over the reins of governance in 2015, former President Olusegun Obasanjo would not escape prosecution if President Muhammadu Buhari decides to probe the sector.
‘‘Former President Obasanjo said in 1999 that if he is elected President with his Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, he would fix the power sector in six months and that there will be electricity supply all over Nigeria.
Many years later, we realized what he meant was that he and his Vice President spent US 16 billion dollars on power sector after eight years and there was more darkness in Nigeria than when they assumed office.
So when President Muhammadu Buhari took over in 2015,he asked a question: where is the power? If Mr President pursues the answer to that question to its logical conclusion, he must bring Obasanjo on trial.’’
Oshiomhole expressed regrets that those whom he said supervised the collapse of the power sector and other sectors of the economy had regrouped to return to power during the 2019 election.
The APC National Chairman also descended on the past PDP administration of former Governor Jang in Plateau state adding that Jang eight years administration was slavery by turning civil servants to slaves and commended Lalong for transforming Plateau State and called on all Plateau Citizens to vote for President Buhari and Lalong come 16th February, and 3rd March 2019 respectively.
Wife of the President, Hajiya Aisha Buhari who was also represented by Former Deputy Governor of Dame Pauline Tallen in her goodwill message describes APC as the only party that will wipe the tears of Nigerians away and assured that the right person to fix Nigeria is President Mohammadu Buhari.
She, however, pledged that women and youths of Plateau State will be given priority by the Buhari administration as he has done on the Social Investment programme.
Speaking on behalf of the National Assembly members, former Governor of Benue State and Senator Representing Benue Zone B Sen. George Akume, said President Buhari has no private jet and foreign Account, but all those contesting with him have private jets and Foreign Accounts.
“I wish Governor Lalong can be transferred to Benue State to substitute Mr Ortom who has refused to pay civil servants in the state and turn them to be slaves. Governor Lalong is Mr Infrastructure, I think we will bring Ortom, to Jos and take Lalong to Benue because he has performed positively and stands qualified to be reelected”.
The Director General of the Buhari Campaign organisation Rt. Hon. Rotimi Amaechi also Speaking during the flag off said PDP is a party for the rich while APC is the party for the poor and accused the PDP of looting the Country treasury for 16 years.

“PDP members are making a mockery of themselves, they are now saying APC has brought hunger to the country, but if PDP had left the billion dollars Nigerians wouldn’t be hungry, they are all thief’s let them bring back our looted funds.
He called on Nigerians to ensure the reelection of President Buhari and Governor Lalong not to allow the PDP deceived them.
Governor Simon Lalong on his part pledged that the State is APC adding that the state is APC and there is no any party that can stand the APC in the state.
“As far as Plateau State is concern, I have not seen any Political party in the state that can withstand APC, even though some people called themselves Boys, but I am a man and already over 50 Political parties had adopted APC in the state for all the Elections”
