The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has mocked the All Progressives Congress (APC) over the imposition of Sen. Abdullahi Adamu as the National Chairman of the ruling party.
The PDP berated the ruling party over a man who was “arraigned in court on 149-count charge of alleged fraudulent award of contracts and stealing of public funds estimated at N15 billion, as its National Chairman.”
The PDP described the APC national convention as a “convention of lies, celebration of illegality, corruption and arrogance in failure adding that any leadership birthed through such process can only be overtly corrupt, debauch and illegal.”
The main opposition party said this via a statement issued and made available to The Star by the PDP National Publicity Secretary, Hon. Debo Ologunagba, on Sunday.
It read: “It is clear that with the combination of the corrupt, deceitful and rudderless Buhari-led APC government and the illegitimate Abdullahi Adamu-led party leadership, corruption, economic hardship and rudderlessness in the APC government will worsen in our country in the remaining one year of the APC in government.
“The composition of the APC national leadership is a clear confirmation that President Buhari has never been committed to the fight against corruption as well as his willingness to further open our national vaults to ravenous treasury looters in the APC.

“The PDP challenges members of the illegitimate APC national leadership, particularly Sen. Adamu to come clean on corruption charges against them.
“The new APC Chairman should inform Nigerians why he was not courageous enough to submit himself to trial at the Federal High Court, Lafia, Nasarawa State rather than hide under technicalities. Senator Adamu should therefore come clean to Nigerians on the said case before parading himself as a saint.
“It is therefore pathetic to see Sen. Adamu showboating on stage to impress his puppet master by attempting to denigrate other Nigerians and our great Party, the PDP.
“Our party has only pity for Sen. Adamu and does intend to confer him an undue relevance with a response.
“Sen. Adamu should however be conscious of the fact that time does not run against the state in criminal matters. He should therefore not have any illusion that being an APC chairman will avail him a perpetual cover.”
