The All Progressives Congress (APC) has rejected the call for the resignations of INEC Chairman, Professor Mahmoud Yakubu and the IGP, Ibrahim Idris by the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
APC in a statement issued by its National Publicity Secretary, Lanre Issa-Onilu in Abuja on Sunday said allegations leveled against the duo were baseless.
“We are amused by the latest utterances of the Chairman, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Uche Secondus. It is a pity that the once boisterous PDP, having undermined the country for 16 years through mindless undemocratic actions, has now become a caricature of a political party. This latest outburst is yet another reminder of how the PDP government serially abused state institutions in the pursuit of selfish political and economic interests. PDP is now being haunted by its sordid past and the ruinous party is now scampering from its own shadow. It is sad that the PDP hounds have continued to take Nigerians for granted, thinking by embarking on scaremongering, the voters could forget their wanton crimes.
The All Progressives Congress said it will continue to stand for and would defend a participatory democracy where elections are transparent, credible, free and fair.”
