The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) administration of resorting to diversionary tactics by attacking the opposition.
The party noted the ruling party has been churning out long epistles of lies and false performance claims, which the PDP said will not save the administration from accounting for its atrocities in office.
In a statement on Tuesday by the spokesman for the PDP, Kola Ologbondiyan, that party declared that diversionary tactics would not save the APC and its leaders from answering for their alleged atrocities.
According to the main opposition party, the alleged atrocities by the APC leaders included the “stealing of over N15 trillion public funds, manipulating the Buhari administration and importing terrorists and bandits for 2019 general elections who are now on rampage, killing innocent Nigerians, particularly in the northern parts of our nation”.
Continuing, the PDP said: “We know that APC’s attack is a desperate diversionary tactics as more revelations continue to emerge on how its leaders and some presidency officials pillaged our national treasury and stole over N15 trillion naira as well as how the APC has been patronizing bandits with our national resources.
“This is especially given the decision by our party to expose such APC leaders, in addition to the rising public demand on President Muhammadu Buhari to recover the money and prosecute the culprits.
“Our party also notes the plots by current APC leadership to blackmail and ridicule President Buhari by pushing out fake performance claims, like those contained in the press statement by its illegal caretaker committee on Tuesday, January 5, 2021, which was designed to rubbish Mr. President, highlight his failures and deflect attention from the atrocities of the APC.
