APC to PDP: We can’t return to your Voodoo Economics, says Resignation Call, Silly
The All
Progressives Congress APC has described as ‘ridiculous’ and ‘silly’, calls by
the Peoples Democratic Party PDP that President Muhammadu Buhari returns
Nigeria to where he met it before assumption of power or resign honourably.
“PDP’s
silly call for the resignation of President Muhammadu Buhari is not worth the
ink it is written with. Hence the APC will not dissipate energy responding”,
the party said.
In a
statement issued Thursday in Abuja and signed by its national secretary, Mai
Mala Buni, APC said it would not return Nigeria to the voodoo economics, which
was the hallmark of the PDP years.
“The
attention of the All Progressives Congress (APC) is drawn to the latest
ridiculous demand by a faction of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) that the
administration of President Muhammadu Buhari returns the country to the voodoo
economics and reckless fiscal policies the country was subjected to during the
immediate-past PDP administration.
“The PDP
faction by its demand to return the country to the years where looting of the
public treasury was the order of the day, has taken its orchestrated plot to
deflect attention from the economic mess it left behind to new insensitive and
shameless heights”, the statement read.
Return the
funds you stole APC said “instead of this charade by the PDP, we advise the PDP
and their cronies to apologise to Nigerians and toe the path of honour by
returning public funds stolen under its watch.
“While the PDP attempts to fraudulently
re-write history and misrepresent facts on its misrule of the country,
Nigerians are traumatised on a daily basis on disclosures of the startling
level of pillage of the country’s commonwealth perpetuated under its watch.
Instead of
saving for the rainy day, past PDP administrations and their cronies literally
looted the public treasury blind, using the loot to build luxury hotels and
other properties, stashing loot in farmlands and hidden bank accounts. “
While the
APC led administration is open to and welcomes positive and constructive
contributions on resolving the country’s economic challenges, the Party assures
Nigerians that the President Muhammadu Buhari administration is already
employing all legitimate and innovative means to restore the country’s battered
economy back to health in the quickest possible time.
“The results of the fiscal
and economic agendas embarked by the President Buhari administration to tackle
the effects of the country’s diminishing crude oil revenues, falling value of
the Naira and resuscitate the economy will be evident soon. “The APC appeals
for patience and cooperation from Nigerians as the President Muhammadu Buhari
administration works assiduously to pull the country out of the present
hardships and restore the country on the path growth in all facets”, the
statement added.Source
