The presidential flagbearer of the All Progressives Congress, (APC), Bola Tinubu, has described the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as a “political party of termites”.
Tinubu stated this during the inauguration of the Tinubu-Shettima Women Presidential Campaign Team at the State House Banquet Hall, in Abuja.
“Our opponents spent 16 years, they had forgotten that the highway is an economy, electricity is mandatory for industrialisation. They don’t understand the transmission lines and the need for maintenance. They couldn’t make a down payment for the trail track. They are a political party of termites. A nation is not built on abusive language… 16 years of rudderless and ditching the wool – PDP shall never come back again. Never again”, he stated.
Tinubu’s scathing remarks came barely two weeks after the official kick-off of political campaigns nationwide, according to the timetable set by the Independent National Electoral Commission.
In attendance are at least 1,250 women members of the APC from across the country, including the President Muhammadu Buhari, who was represented by his Chief of Staff, Prof. Ibrahim Gambari.
