N5,000 Stipend: APC
Senators Acting Party Script’ – PDP……Says APC’s Hidden Ideology Is Lying
Metuh, PDP's spokesman
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) says Wednesday’s rejection by APC
senators of the N5,000 monthly stipend, which they promised Nigerians during
the electioneering, underscores the monumental hypocrisy of their party in
getting to power by means of deceit and false promises to Nigerians.
PDP National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh in a statement on Thursday
said that the development is a clear confirmation of the fact that the APC is a
party of hypocrites, who never had the intentions of honouring any of their
campaign promises.
“The PDP declares that it is absolutely obvious to all that the APC came
to power riding on monumental lies and deceit in making promises they had no
intentions to keep. All they wanted was to get into power and they achieved
this with their lying tongues.
“Indeed, the unanimity displayed by the APC senators in rejecting the promised
N5, 000 monthly welfare package, especially coming after their party and the
Presidency had made futile efforts to distance themselves from it, further
stresses the duplicitous spirit of the APC and its reprehensible insensitivity
to the feelings and aspirations of Nigerians, especially the unsuspecting
youths, women and the indigent, who they shamelessly swindled with false
promises.
