We built Port Harcourt Airport terminal, PDP tells Buhari

The Peoples Democratic Party has condemned President Muhammadu Buhari for allegedly trying to claim credit for the Port Harcourt Airport Terminal , Rivers State , saying it is public knowledge that the project was conceptualised and financed by its administration .The PDP said President Buhari’ s alleged theatrical commissioning of the terminal built by the PDP administration was another failed media stunt to create a false impression that President “ is

performing , even when he made no contribution whatsoever towards the execution of the project . ”

National Publicity Secretary of the party , Mr . Kola Ologbondiyan , said in a statement in Abuja on Thursday , that Nigerians were thoroughly amused when President Buhari’ s handlers brought him to Port Harcourt , for the first time since his inauguration in 2015, only to orchestrate what he called another failed attempt to claim credit for project executed by others .

“If anything , the Buhari administration , in its incompetence , only succeeded in delaying the completion of the project , which was perfected by the PDP , including payments to contractors , ” he said.

Ologbondiyan added that it was appalling that after three and half years , a President , who he said is seeking re -election , cannot point to any development project , initiated and executed by his administration in any part of our country .

He said, “ Instead , our dear President has been moving around trying to claim credit for projects executed by the PDP , all in a desperate attempt to cover his failures in governance .

“Only recently , President Buhari and his dysfunctional All Progressives Congress , to the chagrin of Nigerians , attempted to claim credit for the Abuja Light Rail Project , even when it was public knowledge that that project was conceptualized and policy- propelled by the PDP .

“We know that President Buhari is eager to stuff up his false performance claims ahead of the election , but doing so with the achievements of others is the height of desperation and deceit , which has already become repugnant to majority of Nigerians and the international community. ”

Ologbondiyan , therefore , called on President Buhari’ s handlers to use the remaining days of his administration to prepare him to get ready to accept what he called his imminent defeat in 2019 .
