Former Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Director General of the PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation, Ahmadu Ali, has likened Muhammadu Buhari, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) , “as a septuagenarian with fossilised ideas of how to run a government and social engineering.”
He made the analogy at the inauguration of the PDP Presidential Campaign Council, in Abuja on Tuesday, January 6, 2015.
He said: “In this 21st century where great nations of this world are fielding young men and women in their forties and fifties as presidents and prime ministers, it is ironic that Nigeria’s APC is fielding a septuagenarian with fossilised ideas of how to run a government and social engineering. Nigeria deserves a better leadership than their candidate who has no certificates to tender as requirement for entering an election.”
He described the APC as a desperate creation of the social media “which is already in a fix on how to face President Jonathan’s enviable records in good governance.”
