Former National Chairman of All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Chief Victor Umeh, has criticised the former ruling party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) blasting it for doing the greatest disservice to Nigerian democracy and consequently, PDP leaders should bury their heads in shame.
For, PDP has no moral ground to cry over any form of injustice.
Addressing journalists in Enugu Wednesday, Umeh said, “What PDP did to Nigeria in 16 years it was in power is the greatest disservice to democracy.”
The Appeal Court on Monday nullified Senator Uche Ekwunife’s election on account of Umeh’s petition. The court ordered a re-run within 90 days.
The APGA chieftain maintained that even though he won the election, the PDP manipulated the process with impunity and used the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to declare Ekwunife the winner.
Mocking PDP over its complaints about the outcome of the Kogi and Bayelsa state governorship polls, Umeh said, “Even though the All Progressives Congress (APC) has not been brutal as they were, the PDP members are now weeping.
“PDP promoted electoral banditry. So, I am surprised that they are now crying wolf. They are made up of hypocrites. The PDP’s time has just ended, it should be dismantled.”
