- According to the Kaduna state governor, there is no viable opposition to APC in 2019
- He said APC will end its internal squabbles and the party will the upcoming 2019 elections
Governor Nasir El-Rufai on Wednesday, February 28, said the Peoples Democratic Party is dead as a brand and there is no viable opposition to the ruling party, the All Progressives Congress.
The governor made this statement in Ilorin, Kwara state while delivering Al-Hikmah Univeristy’s first public lecture titled: ‘Governing justly: Perspective from Far and Near with Lessons for Nigeria.’
El-Rufai said APC is a miracle party that was formed a year before 2015 and still succeeded to uproot PDP which had been ruling for sixteen years, The Nation reports.

He said: “APC is a miracle; we are a party that is just five years old but we are a miracle, a 21st century miracle. A party that was formed a year to the election and it ejected a party that had ruled for 16 years, is a miracle. We will solve our problems and we will win the next elections, even in more states because we are capable of solving our problem while the other party is so disorganised and misinformed.
“The reasons why Nigerians voted out the PDP in 2015 was because they were tired, everyone could see that the country was heading towards collapse, so people voted against the PDP.
“There must be a consistent, unwavering focus on security, peaceful co-existence and human development goals that will deliver justice to the people.”
