<\/p>\n\nhauling insults against the opposition party to curry political relevance.<\/p>\n
It also alleged that Tinubu was ostensibly attacking the PDP for his selfish pecuniary interests.<\/p>\n
PDP spokesman, Kola Ologbondiyan said this in a statement made available to newsmen in Abuja.<\/p>\n
He said by travelling to faraway Mecca, at this Ramadan period,
\njust to meet President Muhammadu Buhari and engage in gossips, invectives and diatribes against the PDP, Asiwaju Tinubu has further demonstrated nothing to offer towards the development of our
\nnation.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is atrocious that at the time other leaders are in the Holy Land offering prayers and supplications for our nation, Asiwaju Tinubu is in Mecca for photo-ops, playing dirty politics and hauling insults at other Nigerians just to curry relevance before President Buhari.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe party noted that nothing but sheer hypocrisy would push Asiwaju Tinubu to engage in unholy praises of a failed administration in desperation to avert the purported threats by certain agents of the Buhari Presidency to expose him.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is the same Asiwaju Tinubu, who, in January 2018, at the 15th Annual Daily Trust Dialogue, berated the Buhari administration for its nepotism, incompetence, corrupt oil subsidy regime; blaming it for the high-level poverty in our country and counseled Nigerians to be guided by their conscience in electing leaders in the 2019 general elections.<\/p>\n
\u201cAsiwaju, in criticizing the Buhari administration held rightly that \u201ctoo
\nmuch political and economic power resides in the hands of too few. This result in a society described by too much of unemployment, inadequate infrastructure, too little food, yet too much poverty,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe added that under President Buhari, \u201crather than becoming a joyous nation, Nigeria has become a cruel playground where the fears and concerns of the average person get exploited but their interests never get promoted.\u201d<\/p>\n
The PDP, therefore, lambasted Tinubu for allegedly making allusion to its determination with Nigerians to retrieve Atiku Abubakar\u2019s stolen Presidential mandate at the court, adding that no amount of blackmail can detract from this resolve.<\/p>\n
Further, PDP said, \u201cThe party cautioned Asiwaju Tinubu to call himself to order,
\nparticularly as Nigerians, including members of his party, the All
\nProgressives Congress (APC), have seen through his power-grabbing antics
\nand are now determined to give him the back seat treatment\u201d.\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
