PDP, Atiku Talking Balderdash, Reading From Its Old Book – APC - Politics



Countering the PDP on diversion of military funds, the APC asked the PDP to change its electioneering campaign tactics because its style of diverting public funds for politicking is now old-fashioned.

National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu, and said allegations by the PDP that the ruling party was diverting defence funds to political campaigns was nothing but absolute balderdash.

“You know the PDP is reading from its own book and what they are talking about is what you will find there and it is only under PDP that such things happen and they need to throw that book away.

As long as they continue to read that book, they won’t know that we are in an era of change. I am sure they are shocked that by this time of the year, less than two months to the election, there are no dollars flowing everywhere. That should be a lesson to them, Democracies that have advanced; that is how they went about it. If you want to campaign, look for your own money, don’t use government money to campaign.

That is not the APC style. It is the style of the PDP to take money government money, money meant for infrastructure to give to traditional rulers in the name of seeking support for re-election. It is not the style of the APC. PDP is still reading from its old book and that is why we are asking Nigerians not to go back to Egypt,’’ he said.
