The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, following the decamping of PDP by Governor Bello Matawalle of Zamfara State back to the APC. Tinubu has called on members of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) to dump the party and join the APC.
In a statement by his media aide, Tunde Rahman, Tinubu urged PDP members should realize that they cannot achieve anything good for Nigeria under the party.
Tinubu said:
“May other well-meaning people in the PDP also come to the realization that the PDP is not the place to achieve what is good and constructive for Nigeria and may they also change station accordingly, the nation has entered a historic moment. Now is not the time to waste your time and effort. Come and join the APC so that we all can work in better unison to build a better nation. Matawalle understood that the PDP was not the way, and wisely decided to Part Company with those who would pull the nation backward. The APC’s doors are open to those who want democracy to flourish. The entry of Governors Matawalle, Umahi and Ayade into the party demonstrates that the APC umbrella is sufficiently broad to accommodate all those with valuable ideas and contributions to the party and our country.”
