PDP says APC is unprepared for governance

The PDP says the APC has displayed a crass inexperience which is a pointer that it is not adequately equipped to handle the affairs of government at the center, noting that events would continue to prove the PDP right in this regard.

The party’s national publicity secretary, Olisa Metuh in a statement on Wednesday dismissed threats by the APC against the new leaders of the National Assembly as empty boasts aimed to cover its naivety, inexperience and unpreparedness for governance.

He therefore admonished the APC to shed its arrogance, eat the humble pie and get more organised for governance adding that it lacks the capacity, capability and means to sanction duly elected leaders of the National Assembly.

The statenebt read in part, “Nothing can be more astonishing than the whining by the APC that the PDP at the last minute expressed its preference for Senator Bukola Saraki and Hon. Yakubu Dogara as Senate President and Speaker of the House of Representatives respectively after it had earlier stated that it was not interested in the positions.

“This calls to question the capacity, experience and skills of APC leaders on political matters and we have no apology whatsoever for their naivety.

“The APC is merely suffering the consequences of the greed, lust for power and inordinate ambitions of their leaders. They should note that Nigerians have since moved ahead with the new leaders in the National Assembly and stop wasting their energy on propaganda and blackmails to heat up the polity”.

The PDP further condemned Tuesday’s botched attempts by the APC to close the National Assembly and stop lawmakers from carrying out their constitutional duties.

    I hope APC doesn’t loose it really. People should learn from history, it always repeats itself
