2019 presidency: PDP reacts after Buhari was stoned at APC rally in Ogun
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has reacted to the public pelting and jeering at President Muhammadu Buhari and his All Progressives Congress (APC), in Ogun State.
Aggrieved members of the APC had stoned and jeered at Buhari during his campaign in Abeokuta, Ogun state.
Reacting, PDP said the incident was a direct response by Nigerians to Buhari’s four years misrule as “depicted in the expansion of poverty, corruption, divisiveness and bloodletting in our nation.”
A statement by PDP’s spokesperson, Kola Ologbondiyan said the incident indicated that Nigerians have rejected Buhari.
The statement reads: “It is instructive to note that Mr. President was pelted in Abeokuta barely 24 hours after his Zamfara state rally on Sunday, where he
attempted to incite Nigerians to join the APC in their planned resort to violence to derail the 2019 general election, having realized that they stand no chance of winning the election.
“The people of Ogun state, and indeed, the South West, have shown that they are in direct alignment with other states and geo-political zones of our country in rejecting President Buhari and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, whose administration has foisted so much injustice and brought unprecedented pain and anguish to Nigerians.
“Mr. President can now see that Nigerians cannot be bought with N10,000, as he was made to believe by Prof. Osinbajo and members of the cabal in his Presidency.
“After the unpalatable encounters in all his rallies, Mr. President needs no further signal to show him that the people have completely rejected him, despite his false performance indices. Nigerians are determined to
deal him a crushing defeat on February 16 by voting enmasse for the people’s candidate, Atiku Abubakar, as the next President of our country.
“We therefore urges President Buhari and the APC to read the handwriting on the wall and get ready to accept his inevitable defeat so that Nigerians can have a breath of fresh air under the leadership of Atiku Abubakar, whose campaign has continued to receive rousing reception in all parts of the country.”
