Ahead of the 2023 election, political parties keep showing the their edge over others thereby bringing their dirty linens outside and recently the Peoples Democratic Party National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, on Monday, urged Nigerians not to waste their votes on the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Speaking on Tuesday during the PDP presidential campaign rally in Benue State, the main opposition party chairman claimed that only people with mental problems will vote for the APC.
According to his statement Ayu said, “All of you know that you have suffered in this country in the last eight years APC, only somebody who has a mental problem will vote for APC. Do not waste your vote.”
Speaking on the PDP internal crisis, Ayu said reconciliation moves were ongoing and that the PDP leadership was in talks with aggrieved party members.
“The party is not divided. There are a few members who have grievances. We are talking to them. We want to make sure they come back and work with us fully. One week is enough to change everything. This thing has been going on and I want to assure you that we’ll receive everybody back,” he said.
The Peoples Democratic Party National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, on Monday went further to urge Nigerians not to waste their votes by voting for the ruling All Progressives Congress.
He insisted on Tuesday during the PDP presidential campaign rally in Benue State that, only people with mental problems will vote for the APC.
In his speech Ayu said, “All of you know that you have suffered in this country in the last eight years APC, only somebody who has a mental problem will vote for APC. Do not waste your vote.”
And also appealed to Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, to join the PDP campaign train and participate in activities that would guarantee PDP’s victory during the presidential election.
He expressed, “I am appealing to my younger brother, Gov. Ortom to come back and join us so that we will fight to rescue Nigeria. Gov. Ortom has nowhere to go, his only house is the PDP and anytime that he comes, we shall be more than happy to receive him land all the PDP governors.
“We want all our candidates, all our governors to be with us because if you allow APC to win this election, you will regret it.”
Ortom and other four aggrieved PDP governors have been calling for the resignation of Ayu after the party’s presidential primary last year.
