Mr Osita Okechukwu, a founding member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has urged Nigerians to hold the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
Okechukwu said APC has been watching with studied interest the desperation of PDP to prey on President Muhammadu Buhari’s twelve million vote bank, stressing that as a political party APC has to fine-tune its strategies for the 2023 general elections.
The Director-General of Voice of Nigeria said although it was doubtful that any politician in PDP could sweep Buhari’s 12 million votes away, PDP’s desperation to break into the President’s vote bank explains APC’s indecision. But, speaking during an interaction with newsmen in Abuja, Okechukwu was quoted by NAN as saying: “Although one isn’t holding the brief for our distinguished national Chairman, Abdullahi Adamu, one’s little understanding is that the leadership of our great party, is watching closely the desperation and antics of our elder sister political party, the PDP.
“PDP,” he said, “is aware that President Buhari will not be on the ballot in 2023, therefore, for them, there is a void to fill. They must have reasoned that the Buhari’s Vote Bank would be up for grabs if they go north.
