Tinubu calls on PDP members to dump party for APC, gives reasons

The national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu has called on members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to dump the opposition party for the ruling party.

Tinubu declared that PDP members should realise that they cannot accomplish anything good for Nigeria under the party.

He disclosed this while welcoming Zamfara State Governor, Bello Matawalle into the APC.

According to a statement by his media aide, Tunde Rahman, the previous Lagos State Governor stated that the recent defections of PDP Governors to APC shows the ruling party can accommodate individuals with valuable ideas that would uplift the country.

Tinubu said, “Many other well-meaning people in the PDP also come to the realisation that the PDP is not the place to achieve what is good and constructive for Nigeria and may they also change station accordingly.

“The nation has entered a historic moment. Now is not the time to waste your time and effort. Come and join the APC so that we all can work in better unison to build a better nation.

“Matawalle understood that the PDP was not the way, and wisely decided to part company with those who would pull the nation backward.

“The APC’s doors are open to those who want democracy to flourish. The entry of Governors Matawalle, Umahi and Ayade into the party demonstrates that the APC umbrella is sufficiently broad to accommodate all those with valuable ideas and contributions to the party and our country.”
