The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has asked main opposition, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to follow the example of one its leaders and former Deputy Senate President, Sen. Ibrahim Mantu.
Mantu had in a recent TV programme confessed he took part in rigging elections for the PDP.
And subsequently, the APC wants the PDP to borrow this example and confess to their sins against the country instead of indulging in name calling.
Recall that the PDP National Chairman had last week apologised to the nation for the years of misrule that his party had brought to the country.
The APC noted this apology but asked the PDP to go a step further and confess their sins before restitution could be considered.
The ruling party also told PDP to take the path of redemption instead of engaging in fruitless “you too” accusations and name callings.
Instead of taking this path to redemption, PDP has engaged in fruitless “you too” accusations and name-calling.
“This is further evidence that PDP is not ready for repentance and only offered the apology with the hope that Nigerians will grant them amnesty and a short-cut back to power”, said APC’s publicity secretary, Malam Bolaji Abdullahi.
“However, now that Senator Mantu has belled the cat, by confessing to how he has helped the PDP to rig elections in the past, we hope that PDP will follow the bold example of the former Senator and confess to their other sins against Nigeria,” Abdullahi said.
