The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has mocked President Muhammadu Buhari over what it described as a “scanty audience” at his mega rally in Abuja, saying it signified his rejection by Nigerians, Igberetvnews reports.
This was made known in a statement by the party’s national publicity secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan. He noted that the low attendance in most of President Buhari’s rallies in various parts of the country further exposed alleged fabricated claims by the All Progressives Congress (APC) that 14.8 million members of the party voted for him at their convention.
“President Buhari, who was pelted by Nigerians at his campaign rally in Ogun state on Monday, again slurred at the Abuja rally and, as usual, could not even articulate any meaningful message for his very scanty audience at the Eagle Square in Abuja,” the statement read in part.
It counselled officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, and security agencies to note the tide and “extricate themselves from any form of entanglement or pact to rig the elections for President Buhari, as they will be doing so at their own peril.”
