The Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, on Monday, insisted that it’s National Leader, Seriake Dickson has no secret or open deal with “the ruinous and diabolical” All Progressives Congress, APC, administration.
NDC insisted that Dickson is not a front for the APC, adding that the party’s National Leader is not out to sabotage it’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi and running mate, Rabiu Kwankwaso.
In a statement signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Osa Director, the party said: “The leadership of our great party, the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, the largest opposition and fastest-growing political party in Nigeria today would have ignored the beer-parlour talk and murmurs making the rounds, but history teaches that lies told over and over, if unrefuted, are taken as truth by the gullible.
“Hence, we deem it necessary to issue this strong and unequivocal rebuttal.
“Our National Leader, Distinguished Senator Seriake Dickson, is not a front for the ruling APC or anyone else. He has no secret or open deal whatsoever with the ruinous and diabolical APC regime.
“Anyone who knows Senator Dickson’s public service record, and is in his right senses, will not associate him with any under-the-table arrangement to sabotage his own party and its Presidential Candidate and running mate, Mr. Peter Obi and Dr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso.
“Senator Dickson could have taken the easy way out by joining the APC. Instead, he chose the hard, honourable path of building a party with like-minds, a party that will liberate Nigeria from the vice grip of the buccaneers currently in power.”
