The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has dismissed the blueprint of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presented at the British House of Commons by the leader of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu, describing it as “basket of empty shells”.A release made available to LEADERSHIP yesterday and signed by PDP’s national publicity secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh, described the presentation as a let down.
“It was a let down yesterday as the leader of the ACN, Bola Tinubu, stunned an international audience with the emptiness he unveiled as the emancipation package of the APC. It is an agenda grossly lacking in essentials, in fundamentals; deep in cosmetics, devoid of originality; laced with half truths and outright lies and grittily divorced from the substance and incidentals that ginger national growth. It is a basket of promise filled with shells,” Metuh’s statement read.
The PDP described the presentations as unserious, and said the ‘loud silence’ on corruption and the alternative roadmap to the extant security challenges, which the opposition coalition has made so much noise about, only showed that the opposition remained clueless.
“Members of the British parliament must have giggled and waited in vain for Mr. Tinubu to unveil the much vaunted opposition agenda on anti-terrorism and corruption. Is it that the APC has no answers to these or that Tinubu deliberately skipped them?
“Here, curious minds reflect on two things. The PDP-led Federal Government has applied the master strategy that is already yielding results; thus leaving the opposition bereft of fresh, better dimension as an alternative, or that the man who appeared in the British House of Commons is the least qualified to speak on corruption and terrorism before such a self respecting and well meaning assembly with an in-depth grip on happenings in Nigeria.”
