Chatham House: APC Chasing Shadows – PDP

…Commends Jonathan Over Visit To Troubled Spots
BEVERLY HILLS, February 26, (THEWILL) – The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) , Thursday, said it has noted what it described as the theatrical appearance of the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, “in that well produced orchestra earlier today (Thursday) at the Chatham House, London.”

A statement issued by the PDP National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh, described Buhari's speech at Chatham House as “ A script well written, a script well acted, all a truthful lie,” adding “The messenger belies the message.”

PDP said: “The stage was targeted to secure a desperately needed endorsement of the international community but the world is hardly fooled by theatrics of desperation.

“APC is chasing shadows. That stage may have lifted the badly deflated morale of the members of APC but the vanishing performance is incapable of redeeming the forlorn fortune in the bad sale the APC flag bearer is in the March 28, 2015 presidential election.

“Bottom-line, we wish to urge General Buhari to quickly channel his message and energies home, meet Nigerians who are choking up with questions on his capacity to lead. He may realise ultimately too, that politics in this instance is local and shall be decided locally. The ultimate endorsement lies with the people of Nigeria.”

“ We wish to commend President Goodluck Jonathan for boosting the moral of our gallant soldiers with a visit today to Baga in Bornu State and Mubi in Adamawa State. His able leadership has resulted in the huge successes recorded by our Armed Forces in the fight against insurgency.”
