Osun: PDP Mocks APC Over “Uncertainty” Of Legislative Primaries

 

The Osun PDP Governorship Campaign Organisation has derided the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun state over its inconclusive legislative primaries, describing the party as “a den of anti-people dictators specialising in truncating the will of the people”.

In a statement issued on Monday by Mallam Olawale Rasheed, the organisation berated the APC and Governor Gboyega Oyetola for demonstrated incompetency in public governance and now in party administration, noting that “the failure of APC government has now extended to lack of capacity to transparently organised a free and fair primaries and congresses.

This shameful and undemocratic approach has left many confused as aspirants and their supporters took turns to declare themselves winners. It is the height of irresponsibility and this goes to show that the APC can no longer be trusted with the management of the state.

“Whereas, the PDP conducted credible, fair, and free primaries and candidates for available positions are known to all, the APC put up a charade that not only makes a mockery of democracy but also explains why it has done a very bad job in managing Osun state over the years.

“If the APC can not conduct transparent primaries, it will not be hard to understand why its management of public resources is marred by confusion. If the APC can not be sincere with its membership by ensuring that the wishes of the majority prevail, it is clear why lies and deceits are the tools of governance in the past twelve years.”

The Campaign Organization charged Osun people to take the show of shame that the APC’s primaries represented as a gauge of its failings, noting that it will be entirely hopeless to expect a party that could not manage its affairs to do anything better for Osun as a whole.

Osun people can no longer live in denial and must come to terms with the gross failings of the APC. A party that cannot manage itself will not do any better for Osun people, and this fact is what we see everyday in the deplorable condition of our public infrastructure, deliberate denial of the entitlements of workers and pensioners, reckless abuse of public resources, less attention to youth empowerments, among others.”, the statement noted.
