A spokesman for the Labour Party (LP), Kenneth Okonkwo says both the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have failed Nigerians in equal measures.
Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Monday, Okonkwo asked the PDP and the APC to go into competition to determine who failed Nigeria the more.
His comments came hours after the party’s flag bearer, Peter Obi discussed his plans at Chatham House, a world-leading policy institute and think-tank forum.
Obi, 61-year-old ec-governor of Anambra State, had said the “structure” currently in Nigeria is that of criminality and it has hindered the growth of the West African country. He, therefore, vowed to dismantle the “structure” if elected next month.
Commenting on Obi’s Chatham House appearance on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Monday, Okonkwo slammed the dominant parties boasting of commanding structures.
“My principal talks about destroying the structure of criminality and you and I know that these parties have been talking about structures…the PDP and the APC should go into competition to know who failed more.
“What the APC is talking about PDP is absolutely correct. What PDP is talking about PDP is absolutely correct. What the APC is talking about itself is absolutely a lie. What PDP is talking about itself is absolutely a lie,” the LP spokesman said.
