The Ondo State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) expressed its concern on Tuesday about the economic challenges faced by Nigerians. The party pointed out that these individuals were under pressure to vote for President Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC). According to the main opposition party, many of those who supported the APC are now reconsidering their choice and are experiencing feelings of regret.
Kennedy Peretei, the Publicity Secretary of the PDP in the state, responded to Ade Adetimehin's comments. Adetimehin, who is the Chairman of the APC in Ondo State, had claimed that the PDP no longer existed. Peretei emphasized that instead of making such claims, Adetimehin should be offering apologies on behalf of the APC for the hardships that Nigerians are enduring.
Peretei also added,
“It would have been unnecessary to engage in a debate with Mr. Ade Adetimehin, Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Ondo State, regarding his careless statements.
“Adetimehin is probably the only person who is oblivious to the fact that Ondo State people hold his party, the APC, and its inhuman government responsible for their suffering and agony of the last eight years. Especially the withdrawal of fuel subsidies and their biting effect on everybody.
“He does not realise that even those who were tricked to vote APC in the 2023 general elections are already regretting and lamenting their miscalculation that has brought about untold hardship on them and their families.”
