The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has expressed disappointment with what it describes as the apparent snub by the President-elect, Muhammadu Buhari of the handover programme lined up by the Federal Government to transmit power to him by Friday, May 29, 2015. The PDP said such behaviour was a measure of lack of democratic discipline.

The PDP National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh, in a statement on Sunday said the President-elect owes Nigerians explanations on why he snubbed the prayer sessions scheduled for Friday and Sunday for Muslims and Christians respectively to usher in four years of his in-coming administration as well as the embarrassing protocol gaffe and low-down treatment that characterized his visit to British Prime Minister, David Cameron, last Saturday.

The PDP said it was disgraceful that due to poor coordination and crass ineptitude in the handling of issues, the President-elect was left almost stranded while waiting for about thirty minutes before he was received by the British leader and wondered if such is a foretaste of the muddling to be experienced under the All Progressives Congress’ administration.

“Nigerians, as citizens of a sovereign nation were thoroughly embarrassed when they saw their President-elect cheapened and kept waiting at the door of 10 Downing Street to see the British Prime Minister due to shoddy arrangements by his handlers.

“Indeed, they are becoming increasingly worried about the frightening unpreparedness of the APC for governance and the huge embarrassments they have been attracting to our nation. We know that the APC has been lying over issues. We also know that the APC and the President-elect have been flip-flopping and reneging on their campaign promises; but to embarrass the nation by embarking on such a sensitive visit without adequate preparations is shameful and completely unacceptable.

“We share the fear of well-meaning Nigerians on how a party which cannot adequately handle a simple task of organizing a diplomatic outing will effectively administer a country as complex as Nigeria.

“The APC has continued to give signals that it lacks capacity to face the challenges of governance. Such has been evidenced in the uneasiness of the President-elect who in apparent loss of confidence in himself has started reneging on his promises of quick fixes while confessing in a meeting with APC governors-elect on May 5, 2015 that he has ‘started nervously to explain to people that Rome was not built in a day’.

“Instead of settling down for governance and working out how to fulfill its promises of making the naira the same in value with the dollar, paying N5,000 monthly to 25 million poor Nigerians, providing electricity on 24/7 basis, providing free meals for school children and allowances for discharged but unemployed youth corps members among others, the APC is busy inventing excuses for failure and blaming everyone else but themselves. We hope they will not blame the PDP for their Saturday’s embarrassing outing at 10 Downing Street.

“Furthermore, we find it curious and more than a co-incidence that the nation is experiencing an acute shortage of fuel and electricity supply at this point in time, when such has not been the case under the current PDP-led administration. We ask, are there some forces sabotaging the system to create an impression that the APC is inheriting poor infrastructure and complete system breakdown?

“Is this also part of the larger plot to embarrass and defame the PDP-led administration in an attempt to justify APC’s excuses for failure”, the PDP said

The party insisted that despite the challenges of insecurity and global economic recession that negatively affected many other nations, its administration had in the last 16 years worked very hard in repositioning critical sectors of the polity and laying strong infrastructure backbone that that any prepared and result oriented in-coming administration can comfortably leverage on.

It therefore asked the APC to get ready to apply its much-mouthed manifesto or be bold to apologize to Nigerians for presenting false messianic posture and making false promises to them.

You keep shouting Muslim and Christian prayers but you bastards keep playing down religious bigotry and stealing public funds, Metuh should pls shut his fuvking gutted trap up. Instead of you to come address the issue of scarcity and calm nerves and tell us why the president isn't IQed enough to address the nation you are here talking about 10 Downing Street, is that the issue affecting Nigerians now ? Such a dumb ass wanna be ttwat!

I wonder why this set of stup!d people did not concentrate on the problem they Cause in Nigeria.
Than focusing on useless things

Absolutely crass!
Instead of these failures to cover their heads in shame and vacate quietly on May 29th, they are still busy with propanganda.


Awon MOFOS...

Lol

I know what you doing ,you haven't read the article sef

“Instead of settling down for governance and working out how to fulfill its promises of making the naira the same in value with the dollar, paying N5,000 monthly to 25 million poor Nigerians, providing electricity on 24/7 basis, providing free meals for school children and allowances for discharged but unemployed youth corps members among others, the APC is busy inventing excuses for failure and blaming everyone else but themselves. We hope they will not blame the PDP for their Saturday’s embarrassing outing at 10 Downing Street.

LOL....This Metuh guy get mouth sha.....

APC ko PDP ni
All these politicians had better watch it cause I see revolution coming if this administration fails

Seriously, Olisa metuh needs to go for the crash course lai mohammed offered him then.

I hate to hear political leaders giving prominence to prayers in the church and mosque instead of doing hard work . Of what national importance is the prayer programme when the country is on fire as a result of the ineptitude of the outgoing government? It is this same 'prayer' that has been used by politicians, pastors , immans, marabouts, traditional rulers and others to dupe nigerians. I dont think sensible nigerians should again fall for their 'prayer-trap' . Enough of this nonsense. We must begin to do hard work instead of plenty prayers because the former is what a country needs to prosper and not the latter.

PDP d opposition party now doin d media attack APC does back in d days ..nothing last for ever

How many times will this shiit hits Frontpage?

elections are over and i think comments of this nature is not needful. we can save our breath and see how APC will make their campaign promises. leadership is a hard work and so anyone presenting self for it must understand that and be ready to face it squarely.

PDP sore loser!

What has "10, Downing Street" have to do with the national crisis (Fuel scarcity) that need urgent attention/solution. The masses are meant to suffer unjustly. What a country! It is well.

Uk should not have treated Buhari this way now, they should know that he is our President-elect. That aside, after May 29th, they will have no other choice than to accord Buhari full presidential treatment as the Nigerian President. Buhari is such a humble man and God will protect him.

I don't even see UK/USA as friends of Nigeria. I don't trust those people one bit; they don't mean well for Nigeria and I also believe they understand much more about boko haram than we do. The UK may not even be happy that Buhari won the presidential election; don't be surprised that they and other western countries may be planning how to take Buhari out of the picture soon.

Buhari should stop jumping to UK every now and then thinking that they love him; their hearts are dark.

A word is enough for the wise.

Good for the One Chance President!!

He has not even entered and he has already started tarnishing the image of Nigeria abroad and trampling down on our reps as the richest and greatest African country!

#babaonechance!!

ofada tinz

aw will all dese reduce the fuel scarcity?

PDP will be a Good opposition...

PDP family of rogues. How can you accuse the incoming administration of the crisis Nigeria is facing presently when power hasn't been handed to them yet.

A lot of questions begging for answers.
Is this a deliberate attempt by the current administration to collapse the economy for the incoming administration??

Are the debts currently being owed locally and internationally to be inherited by the incoming administration??

Is the current crisis a cover for massive looting of resources being perpetrated by public service holders??

When the next government start fingering and prosecuting corrupt officials won't we cry wolf that buhari is witch hunting??

Why is Jonathan laid back in all this?? Can't he be decisive for once even if its this last one week he has??

Naija which way??

hmm
