In 6 years, APC wrecked all gains made by PDP – Elumelu


Minority Leader of the House of Representatives, Ndudi Elumelu, has blamed the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) alleged wrecking the gains made in the days of the now opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), just six years in governance.

Elumelu dropped the verdict at the emergency National Executive Committee meeting of the PDP held in Abuja on Thursday.

“It is incontrovertible that our great party worked hard to achieve a stable and more united country, with unprecedented economic growth, massive infrastructural development and citizen empowerment in our 16 years in power at the center.

“Sadly, these lofty gains have been wrecked within a space of six years by the overtly inept, corrupt, divisive and insensitive APC administration. We have never had it this bad in the history of our nation and Nigerians are crying out in pain.

“Today, due to the misrule of the APC, terrorism, mass killings, kidnapping, banditry, youth restiveness, economic hardship, unemployment, hunger and starvation and utter hopelessness have encircled our nation. Nigerians across board are now intensely looking up to our party to rescue our dear nation and we must not fail them,” he said in his remarks.

He said the party’s caucus in the house” had, against this backdrop, intensified our legislative activities in exposing the ills, incompetence, corruption and undesirability of the APC administration while highlighting that solutions lies only in returning the PDP to power at the center in 2023.”

According to him, “Nigerians are waiting; they are queued behind us for direction. The onus now lies on all of us to remain united, focused and not allow any distractions at this critical time.”
