APC is running adverts with my outdated views about Jonathan – Fani- Kayode

ABUJA- PEOPLES Democratic Party, PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation, PDPPCO Sunday took a swipe at the All Progressives Congress, APC, saying the opposition was running newspaper advertorials with renounced and outdated views about President Goodluck Jonathan, describing such action as a measure of APC’s desperation.

In a statement Sunday by the Director of Media and Publicity of PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation,  Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, the PDP noted that  the resort to such childish and dirty tactics by the APC would not distract him from his present assignment of selling the candidature of President Jonathan to the electorate and the Nigerian people while exposing the APC presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari as incapable and unfit to rule Nigeria.

Fani-Kayode said, “The APC have resorted to buying full page adverts of outdated quotes about President Goodluck Jonathan from old essays written by me when I was in their ranks.

“This proves the measure of their desperation. Needless to say I renounced those views about President Jonathan long ago and since then I have returned to the PDP and have given my unflinching support both to him and  the party. I shall continue to do so because I regard the APC as an evil party and their Presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari, as incapable of and unfit to rule our country.

“All the old and outdated quotes in the world cannot change that and I shall not be deterred or distracted from my present assignment by such childish and dirty tactics. “One wonders whether the APC has forgotten what Nasir El Rufai once said about General Buhari being ”outdated and unelectable” and what Bola Tinubu once said about Buhari being ”obsessed with power, wicked, sadistic and unreliable.

“Better still, have they forgotten what Buhari himself once said about Bola Tinubu and his ACN governors as being ”corrupt, treacherous, unstable and unreliable”?

“Clearly the APC has an obsession with me and my words (past, present or future) and let me assure them that I shall continue to focus my guns on them over the next two weeks regardless of their paid television and newspaper adverts about me.

“I shall continue to expose them for the violent men, heartless cultists and dirty ritualists that they are to the Nigerian people. At the same time, I shall continue to intimate our people about the excellent work that Mr. President and the PDP have been doing over the last few months and years  and why I believe that he deserves a second term.

“All the sponsored adverts in the world cannot stop or change that. The APC should spend the next two weeks before the March 28 Presidential election in sober reflection and prepare for the crushing defeat that they will face at the polls rather than bother about what I said or didn’t say about Mr. President in the distant past.”
