2019 election: PDP mocks Buhari, names important actions President must take

The Kwara State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has mocked President Muhammadu Buhari for ordering his party, the All Progressives Congress, APC, to takeover the state in 2019.

It advised Buhari to accept the imminent defeat that await the APC in the 2019 governorship election in the state.

The party said this in a statement by the state Publicity Secretary, Tunde Ashaolu, in Ilorin yesterday.

PDP stated this in reaction to the order by Buhari that APC should take over Kwara State in the 2019 general election.

PDP said, “President Buhari should be more worried about the killings going on in different parts of the country and other pressing issues confronting the nation rather than get fixated on the tall dream of APC taking over power in Kwara State.

“As a responsible and compassionate party, we enjoin the APC-led government to address the insecurity in the country rather dissipating its energy to cause unrest in a peaceful state like Kwara.

“The killings in Kaduna, Plateau, Benue, Borno and in other parts of the country are unacceptable.

“The marching orders by the president to the APC stakeholders to take over Kwara is a reflection of the party’s desperation to take control of Kwara at all cost and put the state in captivity of the Lagos and Abuja cabals.”
