The National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Olisa Metuh has said that the party will no longer insult the president-elect, General Muhammadu Buhari, as they used to do during the election, but provide a decent and credible opposition that will constructively proffer alternatives to the policies and programmes of government without propaganda and deceit.
“The PDP is a political party built on values, tradition and utmost respect for democratic tenets. Our manifesto and ideology center on national peace, stability and prosperity and we shall uphold this at all times. In this wise, the PDP as always, will continue to work in the general interest of the Nigerian people.
“We will not resort to insults, blackmail and lies with the aim to distract or ridicule the person or office of the President. However, we must state in very strong terms that we will not allow them to lead the nation astray.
"So we will firmly oppose any anti-people policy and programmes as may be introduced by the APC.
“We will do this by presenting sound alternatives in such a manner that Nigerians will be the utmost beneficiaries especially on issues that will lead the nation in the path of national unity and development.”
Metuh who stated this at an FRCN political programme in Abuja.
He said that the PDP has commenced its rebuilding and repositioning effort and is poised to regain power in four years time.
