The opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has said that no amount of attacks would stop its victory in the 2023 presidential election.
Debo Ologunagba, the PDP’s spokesman, stated this while reacting to the attack on the campaign office of its 2019 Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, in Gombe State.
Condemning the attack, Ologunagba called on President Muhammadu Buhari to stop APC members from their involvement in violence, describing the attack “as a great threat to democracy, national security and peaceful co-existence in Nigeria.”
In a statement, the PDP spokesman charged Nigerians to note “how the APC has become a threat to national security by resorting to unleashing violence on Nigerians in various parts of the country as being witnessed in Gombe State.”

According to him: “The North East has witnessed a lot of violence, terrorism and acts of banditry which have crippled the economic and social lives of Nigerians in that region. The APC should not worsen the situation with its desperation for power against the wish of the people.

“In any case, the APC is fighting a lost battle in Gombe State as no amount of attacks, threats, intimidations or shenanigans will prevent the people from their manifest determination to rally on the platform of the PDP to liberate themselves from the shackles of the APC government that has discounted their lives in the past seven years.
“Our Party, therefore, calls on President Muhammadu Buhari who, as the Commander-in-Chief, is vested with the duty to protect the lives and property of Nigerians to immediately rein in his party and ensure that APC’s proclivity for violence in our nation is checked.”
