The lawmaker representing Akoko-Edo Federal Constituency in the House of Representative, Mr Peter Akpatason, said on Wednesday that politicians dumping the APC for other parties did not fit into the vision of the ruling party.
Speaking to newsmen in Benin, Akpatason stated that the defectors won elections in 2015 because of the “good people” they met in the APC.
The lawmaker said the defectors would fail in the elections slated for next year because they left “good people” in the APC to join “bad people.”
He argued that the main opposition PDP was not a beautiful bride for defectors, but a dumping ground for those he described as “waste products. ”
“For you to effect development, you need the good, the bad and the ugly, but in the process of development, you begin to see the good from the bad and the ugly”, NAN quoted him as saying.
“At some point, it becomes clear to some people that they do not fit into the system and that is what is happening now. They jump ship to where they actually belong.
“Some people jumped ship some years ago because they wanted to contest election and they thought it was the APC platform and also the Buhari tsunami, including the dynamics of their local politics.
“PDP is a dumping ground for waste products and not a beautiful bride. Somebody who decamped four years ago and is defecting now is a waste product.
“They don’t have value to add to the system. People of value who command respect do not defect but only political merchants who see political parties as a platform resort to defecting.”

My first FTC this year

The Destiny of a great country rests on the shoulders of an old Dauran Dullard. His name; Bu...

So what was the APC when they decamped in mass into in 2014 Fact is all the Nigerian political parties are dumping ground depending on where power equation shifts to.

Looking at the calibre of people leaving to PDP, I think that's a false statement even those they're were never loyal to any party from start.

Before nko,can he survive without apc

On August 9th, 1965. Singapore got expelled from Malaysia and became the only country till date to gain independence unwillingly.

You didn't remember this when they moved into APC 4 years ago?

You didn't know this dump waste helped your party win the election also?

Why does APC always feel pained when people move away from their party but become joyous when same "dump refuse" from PDP defect to APC?

But the reverse is actually the case.


APC, party of hypocrisy, denials and lies. Smh

These people won't kill me ooo

Akpatason bench warmer trying to trend...

What is the difference between a trash can and a dustbin?.. nothing... Their products are dumped in dump sites

Lol... Akpatason of all people? The man should just go and sit down joor. He's not in the best position to criticize whoever that is decamping because he's a failure himself. I rather vote a dead man in any useless party than vote Akpatason (a renowned failure) for a third term. Akoko Edo deserves better.!

PDP NA SEWAGE NA

While APC is a holy ground abi

OK but I know no politician can buy my vote.

This should shut up his mouth.
The defectors are not fitting to vision of killing, jobless, and putting Nigeria into hardship

Nigeria shld pls expel biafra.

Some of them were so bad that even the pdp is rejecting them.
