The Ondo chapter of the All Progressives Congress has accused the main opposition party of planning to discredit some APC ministerial nominees through frivolous petitions.
According to a Nation report, the Ondo APC spokesman Abayomi Adesanya claimed that the Peoples Democratic Party governors had masterminded a plot targeting the nominees from the south-west. The plotters purportedly want to cause their disqualification with the use of disgruntled APC members.

Adesanya said that the PDP governors had already met with the PDP senators to discuss the details and had contacted some civil society groups to label APC ministerial and NDDC (Niger Delta Development Commission) candidates as corrupt people.

The official therefore advised President Buhari to be prepared for the possible development.
Reacting to the allegations, Olisa Metuh, the PDP spokesperson, said they were untrue.

“It is preposterous and inconceivable for anyone to make such an allegation against the PDP, its governors and its members in the Senate.
“As a matter of fact, we are worried that President Buhari has not appointed his ministers and we are eagerly waiting for him to do so.

“We all know that the country cannot make any meaningful progress if we don’t have ministers and I can assure you that that is not what the PDP wants. The APC is only making excuses for their inability to get things right.

“How can we hatch a plot to frustrate ministerial nominees when we don’t know the identities and the type of characters they are presenting? So it is unthinkable for anyone to be trading such rumour. It is untenable.

“They must know that the success of this administration is not the success of President Buhari or the success of the APC. Rather, the success of the administration is the success of the entire country. So let them sit up and face the task of governance instead of pointing accusing fingers.

“This was the kind of thing the APC was doing when it was in the opposition. They were busy bringing down every government policy and appointee, including cabinet ministers.
We have stated before and we continue to state that our role as the opposition party is to engage the administration in constructive criticism and to offer credible policy alternatives.”

Indications have recently emerged that President Buhari will make some key appointments next week, as soon as he moves to Aso Rock. The issue has been surrounded by numerous controversies. Different ministerial lists are circulating in the media, with the president, however, denying any information and urging Nigerians to wait patiently, as he does not want to hurry making important appointments.

APC should nominate people with clean track records for them not to be discredited.....................noise makers.

Where are Tanoids........operation defend your party!

We have been waiting for the list like since independence.
Dont worry, Nigerians will be able tell who is good and bad. We dont need PDP to tell us.

Thunder fire all tanoids...

APC have a way of bringing in PDP into their problem. What concerns PDP and their ministerial list? We all know that 95.99% of APC members are men and women of fraudulent and questionable integrity. They should get it into their heads that we will let Nigerians know the calibre of people they are nominating as ministers/board members when their list is out. This is a guarantee

What a ruling opposition!

APC + PDP be like Tom and Jerry. Make dem park well jare.

Wait, does it mean APC can no longer do anything, without mentioning PDP?
Silly people in a silly Party, with their silly BROOMS!

What are they afraid of when no name has even come forth?That's d essence of opposition,if PDP has any corruption allegation against any nominee,they should make it public and by so doing would have helped the govt and Nigeria.
These APC members that issued this release must be living in the old era if they feel they can invoke the sentiments of Nigerians and even party sympathizers to overlook any incompetent or corruption tainted Nigerian.
The new breed of party or government sympathizers for the govt in power,like me for eg,unlike the previous,would not fail to call out the govt if it has policies or individuals not in sync with the change mantra.
Nigerians in majority voted for a better Nigeria and not for a change of baton from one set of thieves to another.

Apc can cry!!!!

Let the president release the nominee first and let see if PDP will discredit it or not.

Is PDP holding you from nominating your own ministers?


The law is clear on ministerial appointments ; the composition of the cabinet must have federal representation and nominees need to be approved by the Senate.


This is clear indication that the APC does not even believe in their own list

Typical janjawiid dunce

Mr Adesanya isn't it a shame that almost 4 weeks into your administration, your party still doesn't have a direction? Apart from 2 very incompetent and brainless media aides, your dullard of a president doesn't know who is to work with him to bring to fruition his change policy?
Shouldn't you be more worried about your party's directionless directionlessness and purposeless purposelessness than PDP discrediting your nominees who obviously have their own dirty baggages?

Why are APC afraid of PDP Are they no longer the Ruling party . Besides, PDP want nothing to do with APC led government talkless of their ministerial list.

They dont. Thats why they are giving excuses, saying that emergence of Saraki as Senate President has caused a splint in Buhari's anti corruption war.
As it is today, All Progressive Confidence has no magnitude or direction.

It is because of this line of thought that got APC into its present predicament in the National Assembly because they thought PDP is dead. The Umbrella may not be strong as before but nevertheless it is still a formidable force in politics. Never underate PDP.
Politics is a game of interest.
