The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has criticised the Peoples Democratic Celebration, PDP, for what it described as a “confused and inconsistent” stance on zoning its 2027 presidential ticket.
In an announcement issued on Thursday, APC spokesperson, Seye Oladejo, stated the PDP’s newest determination to depart its ticket open to all zones after initially zoning it to the South displays a celebration in disarray.
He described the transfer as “a roadmap to nowhere,” insisting it was proof of the opposition’s lack of focus.
Oladejo argued that the ruling APC’s rising reputation has unsettled the PDP, forcing it into repeated reversals. He accused the opposition of being indecisive and blind to constitutional provisions when it initially shut out some elements of the nation from contesting.
“The reality is straightforward: the larger-than-life picture of the APC below President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has so overwhelmed the PDP that it not is aware of whether or not to go left, proper, or in circles,” Oladejo stated.
He additional pressured that Nigerians have been extra involved with APC’s reform agenda and supply of democratic dividends than a celebration “nonetheless making an attempt to determine its identification.”
The APC spokesman dismissed the PDP’s open-ticket coverage as an indication of weak spot quite than inclusion. In line with him, the transfer betrays inner crises, energy struggles, and the social gathering’s lack of ability to be taught from previous errors.
“PDP has was a political playing home the place determined politicians are invited to check their luck,” Oladejo remarked, recalling how the social gathering’s zoning disaster in 2023 triggered defections, rancour, and what he known as electoral humiliation.
Oladejo added that whereas the opposition flounders, the APC stays targeted on governance, reforms, and securing Nigeria’s future.
“For the PDP, the 2027 election is already misplaced, not on the poll field, however within the circus tent they now name their social gathering,” he concluded.
