Your Time Is Up, Lagos ACN Tells PDP

Lagos State Chapter of the Action Congress of Nigeria has reacted to the boast by the Chairman of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, Alhaji Bamangar Tukur, that it would win at least 32 of the 36 states in the 2015 general elections.

The party said by this boast, the PDP hierarchy was obviously preparing itself for routing in 2015 having had nothing to show for its 14 years of leadership in the country.

Lagos State Publicity Secretary of the ACN, Joe Igbokwe, said in a statement on Tuesday that PDP stood no chance at the 2015 polls because Nigerians had become wiser.

He said, “Nigerians who currently endure the torture of PDP misrule understand the boast of the PDP to ‘capture’ more states with its woeful performance as a declaration of intent to continue stealing the mandates of Nigerians as they have excelled in doing since 1999.

“Nigerians understand the desperation of PDP to cling to power by all means even with their shameful performance that had left Nigeria desolate and her people destitute.

“We perfectly understand this devilish obsession with ‘capture’, which holds a notorious party hostage. We however warn the PDP and its riggers to get ready to face the full wrath of Nigerians in 2015 should they believe we have a borderless capacity to tolerate their noxious values.”

He said the failure of one of the party’s leaders to deliver Edo State during the 2012 governorship election was enough proof that the “PDP only issues empty boasts.”

Igbokwe said, “We want to assure them that if they are bent on capturing states in 2015 with their wrecking of a well endowed country in 14 years of leadership, they will have the determined will of Nigerians to contend with.”

He observed that the ruling party had been embroiled in internal conflict, which would further dim its chances in 2015.
