December 9, 2024 Press Statement Opposition Triumph in Ghana Signposts End of APC’s Oppressive Rule in 2027- PDP The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) congratulates the people of Ghana for their resilience in defending democracy and ensuring that their Will prevailed in the Saturday, December 7, 2024 Presidential election which returned the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and President John Mahama to power. The victory of democracy on the platform of the opposition NDC is a clear demonstration of the triumph of the power of the people over misrule and oppressive policies of government as now being witnessed in Nigeria under the corrupt, rudderless and insensitive All Progressives Congress (APC). The verdict of the people of Ghana in this Presidential election is a signal to the APC that its days in office are numbered as the power of the people in Nigeria, just like in Ghana, will surely prevail, end APC’s oppressive rule and return Nigeria to the path of good governance, security, political stability and economic prosperity on the platform of the PDP in 2027. It is intolerable that the APC has in the last nine and half years wrecked our collective patrimony, opened our country to terrorists resulting in the killing of over 65,000 Nigerians; destroyed the creative abilities of our youths; plunged our Naira from about N197 under the PDP to nearly N2,000 to the Dollar with over 34% inflation rate; crippled our productive sectors leading to over 40% unemployment rate; mortgaged the future of our country through reckless borrowing, foisted repressive policies including the rise in the cost of petrol from N97 per liter under the PDP to over N1,000 today and subjected Nigerians to misery where millions of families can no longer afford their daily meals and other basic necessities of life. Also unacceptable to Nigerians is that our once thriving nation, which ranked as preferred destination for international foreign investment capital and one of the world’s fastest growing economies under the PDP has been brought to its knees by the APC with decayed infrastructure, comatose economy, worsening insecurity and social uncertainties occasioned by ill-conceived and ill-implemented macro-economic policies. More distressing is that while Nigerians are subjected to harrowing hardship, APC leaders remain unconcerned and unaccountable; imposing harsh taxes and recklessly looting the nation’s treasury to finance their luxury appetites and consumption while arrogantly treating Nigerians as though they are a conquered people. Major multinationals are now leaving our country in droves and life has become so unbearable that our citizens, particularly the youths are now resorting to suicide or slavery mission abroad as alternative because of the monumental misrule and insensitivity of the APC. Nigerians now recall with nostalgia and earnestly seek a return of the golden years of the PDP in government as their only hope for survival and triumph of their dreams, aspiration and collective Will as a people. The PDP therefore calls on all institutions of government especially the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and security agencies to note the yearning of Nigerians and ensure that all processes are put in place to guarantee that only the Will of the people prevail in elections. INEC must note that Nigerians are not ready to accept a repeat of the massive manipulation and perversion of the electoral process as witnessed in the 2019 and 2023 Presidential elections in our country. The PDP charges Nigerians to remain firm and steadfast in their resolve to end the suppressive rule of the APC and re-establish good governance on the platform of the PDP come 2027. Signed: Hon. Debo Ologunagba National Publicity Secretary
