APC distracting attention from Osinbajo indictment – Atiku
The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar , on Wednesday , faulted the ruling All Progressives Congress over the APC ’ s “ contradicting” statements about him recently.
Atiku ’ s position was contained in a statement by the Atiku Presidential Campaign Organisation .
The organisation recalled that the APC last week accused Atiku of attempting to smuggle a large sum of money into the country to fund his campaign .
The organisation said it was surprised that the same APC which made that allegation turned around by releasing a new statement contradicting their earlier statement and alleging that the former Vice – President was broke .
It recalled that the APC claimed Atiku was at a crossroads on how to source funds for his campaign .
The statement read , “ Our response is to urge the APC to make up its mind on which lie it wants to tell the Nigerian people and then stick to that lie .
“ As a party in power , there ought to be more stability in the APC , at least to give the public and the international community some assurance that the party is not imploding . No wonder there is a lot of policy flip- flop under the APC administration .
“ We know that the APC is desperate to distract attention from the recent indictment of Vice -President Osinbajo by the House of Representatives for grand corruption and the interrogation of their chairman , Adams Oshiomhole , by the Department of State Services on charges of collecting huge bribes to influence party primaries .
“ Given the sordid state of things in the APC and its imminent implosion over money politics, we are not surprised that the APC is throwing wild allegations at former Vice -President Atiku Abubakar in the hope that something will stick .
“ Our advice to the APC is that they should send their spokesman to the Atiku Presidential Campaign Organisation for a two – week crash course on how to run an issue- based campaign that is guided by civility and refined language . ”
The campaign organisation said it sympathised with Oshiomhole on his ordeal and assured him that if he was finding the APC too hot for him , he should throw in the towel and join the APC chiefs who had washed their hands of the party “ and its hydra -headed problems . ”
