Senator Ajibola Bashir of APC stated that the PDP’s internal crises and dilapidated structure make it untrustworthy to lead Nigeria. He emphasized APC’s efforts to strengthen its political influence. Hon. Nicholas Ossai, a former PDP member, echoed this sentiment by highlighting the instability within PDP, suggesting it is no longer functional.
In a recent statement, Senator Ajibola Bashir, the National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), declared that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is no longer a trustworthy entity to govern Nigeria. He criticized the PDP for having a ‘dilapidated structure’ that inhibits its ability to effectively lead the nation, attributing its predicament to internal crises driven by excessive ambitions and poor coordination.
During a formal reception for former PDP member Hon. Nicholas Ossai at the APC national secretariat in Abuja, Bashir expressed the party’s commitment to strengthening its leadership through the revitalization efforts under Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje, the National Chairman. He highlighted that the APC remains a strong political force, particularly in comparison to the PDP’s ongoing struggles.
Bashir questioned the PDP’s capacity to govern, stating, “The question is, can Nigerians trust a party that cannot even put its house in order to rule the country?” He welcomed Ossai to the APC, asserting that the party aims to inspire hope among Nigerians and ensure electoral success across the country.
Ossai, who previously represented Ndokwa East/Ndokwa West/Ukwuani in the House of Representatives, affirmed that the current state of the PDP is unstable, remarking that “the centre could no longer hold in PDP because the umbrella has broken.”
In conclusion, Senator Ajibola Bashir’s remarks underscore the APC’s confidence in its governance capabilities while questioning the PDP’s viability. The APC aims to solidify its position by attracting experienced politicians and fostering a revitalized party structure, while the PDP contends with significant internal challenges. Both Bashir and Ossai’s comments reflect a critical assessment of the current political landscape in Nigeria.
