The All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, on Monday, knocked the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), describing it as a “political party of termites and looters.”
Tinubu stated this during a remark at the inauguration of the Tinubu-Shettima Women Presidential Campaign Team at the State House Banquet Hall, Presidential Villa, Abuja.
“Sixteen years of nothingness. Never again shall they come back. A new hope is here.
“PDP is a political party of ‘Jembullas.’ When they say they want to change the government, just tell them we will like to be polite, but shut up,” he said.
The former Lagos governor’s scathing remarks came barely two weeks after the official kick-off of political campaigns for the 2023 general elections.
Those in attendance include President Muhammadu Buhari, who was represented by his Chief of Staff, Professor Ibrahim Gambari; First Lady, Aisha Buhari; APC National Chairman, Sen Abduallahi Adamu; APC vice presidential candidate, Sen Kashim Shettima, and over 1000 APC women across the country.
