“The worst of the PDP government is 100 times better than the best of the present APC government” – PDP

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)  has accused the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) of “impoverishing Nigerians” and leading the country “into an avoidable recession.”

The PDP Caucus in the House of Representatives, made the claim, yesterday, and  added that “the worst PDP administration is 100 times better than the best government under the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC).”

Chairman of the House Caucus’ Ad-hoc Committee on the PDP crisis,  Pat Asadu, said this in Abuja,  at the inauguration of the committee, yesterday.

“The PDP government was not and could never have been perfect, but, the worst of the PDP government is 100 times better than the best of the present APC government.

“We all are witnesses to a party under which the government has not only impoverished our people by leading us into an avoidable recession, without a single clue as to how to get us out of it, but also runs a government under which all truly democratic institutions are under siege; under which ethnic, regional and religious tensions have been promoted to unacceptable and unhealthy levels by selective application of the rule of law, systematic breaches of the federal character principle and through an obnoxious and nauseating policy of government by exclusion of large segments of the society, and a loud insensitivity to the insecurity of lives and property nationwide.”

Asadu  said it would take only a cursory look at the almost two years of the present government “for all to acknowledge that Nigeria needs its beloved party, the PDP, in whatever shape or form, not just as a vibrant democratic party, but also as the party that forms and runs the government.”
