The All Progressives Congress (APC) on Monday said the call by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), asking the Supreme Court to review its rulings on the 2019 presidential election and governorship elections in Osun, Kano, Kaduna and Katsina States was ridiculous.

By so demanding, the ruling party said the PDP “has, once again, exposed the joke the opposition party has turned itself into in our nation’s political space.”

A statement by the national publicity secretary, Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu, which was sent to TheNiche claimed that, “Never in the history of our democratic journey has a political party made mockery of what a responsible opposition politics entails.

“The PDP’s call has once again, reinforced our party’s belief that the PDP has become a clog in the wheels of our country’s political evolution.

“For the All Progressives Congress (APC), PDP’s latest antics is no surprise. Nigerians would recall that we have consistently reiterated that the opposition party, having been overwhelmingly rejected at the polls in 2015 and 2019, has been exhibiting strange behaviours. 

“We believe it has been difficult for some leaders of PDP to cope for so long outside of power. There is obviously a lot of idleness at the Wadata House Secretariat of PDP. 

“At this period that our government is working hard to ensure food sufficiency in the country, we urge those jobless characters at the Wadata House to seriously consider taking up rice farming. This would make them useful for our country.”
