APC lacks beneficial policies
Addressing the stakeholders’ meeting of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Sokoto, Tambuwal emphasized that during the 2023 campaigns, they cautioned Nigerians against re-electing the APC due to their perceived lack of beneficial policies, Daily Trust reports.
He said:
“We told them APC are not prepared to lead this country. What they wanted was to grab power and see them into offices.
“Now they have grabbed the power and are into offices but don’t know what to do with it. And life is becoming unbearable to many Nigerians because of their failure.”
Tambuwal calls opposition to join forces with PDP
However, the former governor called the opposition to join hands and ensure the APC party loses in the next election, Daily Independent reported.
He said:
“Our collective responsibility is to ensure APC loses at all levels of government.”
He praised the party leaders for their efforts in maintaining unity and strengthening the party.
