The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has debunked claims by
the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) concerning its flag bearer, Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s visit to former President Goodluck Jonathan.
According to reports, the PDP has noted that APC was plotting to disown the relevance of President Muhammadu Buhari in the 2023 polls.
Reacting, the APC insisted the main opposition party was only spreading fake news, adding that President Buhari’s legacy cannot be thwarted after two economic recessions in his administration.

“Contrary to PDP’s laughable claim that the duo of Tinubu and Shettima are distancing themselves from President Buhari’s administration, it is on record that this government deftly managed two economic recessions, and pulled the nation back from the precipice where PDP’s years of atrocious rule left it hanging precariously,” it said.
On Tinubu’s consultative meeting with ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, the ruling party maintained it was a mere act of democratic intelligence and solidarity.
APC described the criticism of the ex-president by the PDP as the highest level of hypocrisy and foolishness.
“Rattled by the recent statesman visit of Tinubu to Jonathan, PDP has hit the panic button in false alarm, saying the move won’t help our candidate and party.
“Again, the PDP proves itself as a party afflicted with chronic myopia, lacking in vision and incapable of recognising the imperative of elevating the common good of our country above partisan quibbles,” a statement by the APC said.
