The All Progressives Congress (APC) has criticises the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for alluding that was working to foist a one party on Nigeria.
PDP at its 98th National Executive Committee meeting faulted APC government on several fronts.
But responding through a statement signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, APC said continues to encourage opposition parties to provide credible and viable political alternatives to Nigerians
“PDP’s NEC idly alluded to its imagined attempt by APC to “foist a one-party state on our nation.” Our great Party recognizes opposition politics as indispensable to multiparty democracy, and continues to encourage opposition parties to provide credible and viable political alternatives to Nigerians.
“We maintain our long held rejection of the PDP’s attempt to taint our Party with its own sordid historic obsession to operate a one-party state in our country.
“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu-led administration maintains an ironclad commitment to the security and welfare of Nigerians. That is the nucleus of the administration’s Renewed Hope Agenda – from the social investment and student loan programmes to the massive economic and infrastructural transformation underway, the administration is working assiduously to improve the quality of life of all Nigerians, and build enduring prosperity for our nation.
“The administration’s unprecedented huge investment in security is already paying off as insurgency, terrorism and other criminal activities have abated significantly. All critical economic indicators are shifting in the positive direction with prognosis for the future looking better than the jaundiced eyes of the PDP can see.
“The PDP’s persistent infantilism, more than anything else, is the clear and present threat to our democracy. Its NEC meeting was no more than inglorious press conference with no iota of purpose.
“Nigerians clearly understand who is working hard on their behalf and will stand fast with President Tinubu as he continues to win massive progress for all Nigerians. He remains indistractable by the noise pollution of PDP’s tattered drums.”
