The All Progressives Congress (APC) has faulted the claims of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) that it is employing undemocratic means, including blackmail and dirty tricks to force its members, particularly serving governors, to joining the ruling party.

APC, in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, mocked the opposition party, describing it as baseless.

According to Morka: “The PDP continues to ridicule itself by the boring, repetitive and baseless claim that APC is somehow, intimidating or cajoling its governors and other senior members to dump their wreck of a party.

“The PDP is the sole maker of its own political predicament. The party is only harvesting well-deserved adversity from decades of the political recklessness, mindless corruption, ruthless desecration of democracy, disgraceful failure of leadership, and destructive impunity that have characterized its existence.

“The governors and members that are dumping the party in their numbers are doing so in exercise of their free democratic will, and wisely so, to mitigate against a devastating fate that Nigerians will deal the party in the upcoming election 2027 elections.”
