The People Of Anambra Have Rejected Your Party – PDP Mocks APC

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has condemned the All Progressives Congress (APC) for its verbal assault on the party ahead of the Saturday’s Anambra governorship election.
PDP said the opposition party was merely crying wolf because it was clear that the people had rejected them.

In a statement by the PDP National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh on Thursday, the party said it was proud of President Goodluck Jonathan’s position on electoral transparency and credible polls at all levels across the country.

“The APC is now living in morbid fear because the people of Anambra State and the South East in general have rejected it on account of its tribal stance and hatred for the region as demonstrated in its sectional and anti-people policies, including the recent deportation of Anambra state indigenes from Lagos which resulted in untold hardship and death of some of the victims, who were severally tortured before being dumped at Upper Iweka Head Bridge in Onitsha in the dead of the night.”

The PDP, which described the APC as party of propagandists and deceitful also wondered why they restricted themselves to criticizing elections only in states where they lost, such as Ondo and Delta, but sees nothing wrong in states where they won such as Edo, even when
stakeholders in such states have raised credibility issues.

The party stressed that contrary to claims by the opposition, President Goodluck Jonathan has remained resolute in his commitment to free and fair elections as reflected in his mantra of one man, one vote, noting that the drastic reduction in electoral disputes under President Jonathan is a clear testimony in this regard.
Lashing out at the APC for not imbibing the spirit of sportsmanship when it is defeated as demonstrated by the PDP on many occasions, the PDP said President Jonathan has remained open and objective on election issues adding that,

“it is on record that the President has always congratulated candidates who won in free and fair elections irrespective of the parties they belong”.

The PDP therefore told the opposition to “wake up to the reality of its rejection by the people and look elsewhere to cast its lame vituperations”
