The PDP claims that the ruling party’s actions are part of a broader strategy to establish a one-party system and totalitarian rule in Nigeria.

The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has said policies being implemented by President Bola Tinubu won’t be reversed.

This is as the party dismissed calls from the opposition to reconsider the policies implemented by President Bola Tinubu.

In a statement released on Friday, the party responded to accusations from the Board of Trustees (BoT) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), who alleged that the APC rigged the September 21 governorship election in Edo State.

The PDP claims that the ruling party’s actions are part of a broader strategy to establish a one-party system and totalitarian rule in Nigeria.

The chairman of the PDP’s BoT, Senator Adolphus Wabara, expressed his concerns over the worsening socio-economic conditions in the country, attributing them to the policies of the APC-led government.

Wabara spoke to newsmen following a BoT meeting held at the PDP national secretariat in Abuja, where he reiterated the opposition’s stance against the government’s alleged electoral manipulation.

In a counter-response, the APC’s Director of Publicity, Alhaji Bala Ibrahim, refuted the opposition’s claims during a telephone interview with Daily Trust.

Ibrahim emphasized that the APC is committed to upholding democracy and has no intention of undermining it. He described the opposition’s assertions as unfounded and an attempt to deflect attention from their own shortcomings.

Ibrahim said, “The APC as a ruling party is not intending to foist on the country anything that is going to injure democracy.

 

“The APC is a progressive party; it is a party that is out to bring changes that will bring about dividend of democracy to the people. Democracy is only vibrant when there is opposition, but let the opposition be constructive, not destructive.

 

“The country had been bleeding heavily under the leadership of the PDP; they mismanaged the country. So Nigerians are still watching and beginning to understand what change means.”

Ibrahim said the policies of the APC-led government were not anti-people but aimed at uplifting their socio-economic well-being in a near future.

He urged the opposition to bury the thought of policy reversal and support the government.
