Mai Mala Buni Insulting Our Governors Will Not Mask The Failures Of His Party – PDP

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP has come out to warn the national caretaker chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, and Yobe state governor, Mai Mala Buni to stop sending impostors to insult APC governors.

PDP recently revealed that such bad habit will not make people stop focusing on the failures and problems of APC.

According to its spokesman, Kola Ologbindiyan, Governor Buni needs to come up with a better way to hide the failures of his party at federal and state levels, rather than resorting to using nonentities to drag PDP down.

He added that it is clear that the PDP governors have performed and are performing better than their counterparts in the ruling party.

His words, “Nigerians across the country already know that the standard of living, infrastructural development, wealth creation, employment opportunities as well as growth in critical sectors including aviation, education, health, transportation power, energy, manufacturing, commerce are better in PDP states.

“Of course, no APC governor can point to any development project that can compete with the achievements of any of our governors in any sector of life.

“Such feat is not by accident but by sheer ingenuity, hard work and accountability being exhibited by our governors in line with the manifesto of the PDP.

“Furthermore, it is ludicrous that rather than advising President Muhammadu Buhari and his government to rescind the unjustified increase in fuel price and withdraw the morbid declaration that fuel price ought not to be cheaper in Nigeria than Saudi Arabia, the APC is further insulting Nigerians by bandying unsubstantiated oil subsidy figures, to defend their atrocious policy.

“In case the APC is not aware, it is instructive to remind them that their party and government has fallen too low in the esteem of Nigerians for it to seek a rebranding through impostors as spokespersons, to funnel lies, deception and distortions of facts in a fresh attempt to beguile Nigerians.

“It is incontrovertible that contrary to the lies of APC impostors, between 2006 and 2013, successive PDP administrations, effectively managed the resources of our nation and grew our economy to become one of the fastest growing in the world as recorded by Fitch and the International Monetary Fund, IMF.

“Perhaps the APC should be reminded that within this period, the PDP achieved the historical debt relief (of about $18 billion), which freed Nigeria from the suffocating shackles of huge external borrowings of the past.”

“It is a fact that during this period, the PDP administrations reduced our nation’s budget deficits by 72 per cent stabilized our currency and overall economy to achieve the doubling of our GDP within four years from $55.65bn in 2003 to $114.36bn in 2006, as acknowledged by IMF database.”

“This is in addition to improving our FDI from less than $700 million per annum in 1999, to $4.3 billion by 2007, which earned Nigeria a BB credit rating by Fitch.”
