National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Chief John Oyegun has asked the Peoples Democratic Party to act as a formidable opposition so that they will prevent the APC from making the same mistakes PDP made.
While speaking when he received a delegation of former governors led by former Anambra State governor, Chief Jim Nwobodo, Oyegun said “we want the PDP to keep us on our toes so that we don’t make the same mistake they made.”
Oyegun added that the 2015 elections was unique because President Goodluck Jonathan, by conceding defeat did what nobody believed could be done.
Meanwhile a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress and the party’s senatorial candidate for the Akwa Ibom North-West senatorial district, Chief Inibehe Okori, has said that the President-elect, Muhammadu Buhari, will position Nigerians for greatness.
Speaking in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom State capital, on Sunday, Okori said “Unlike other presidents who were not prepared for leadership but foisted on the country by individuals and interest groups, the President-elect has consistently presented himself to the electorate to lead the country on four occasions and had his visions well enunciated.
“Buhari is taking over government on May 29 and from that day, I expect that he will make major pronouncements that will position Nigeria for greatness. This country must have a direction and move in the way it should. We don’t have any reason to be poor. We have no reason to remain the way we are – not after earning more than $50bn annually from oil and gas.”
