Why We Apologised To Nigerians-PDP

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has explained that its apology to Nigerians is to renew the people’s trust in its rebranded party. The party in a statement on Tuesday by its spokesperson, Kola Ologbodiyan, said as a responsible party committed to the good of Nigerians, having learnt its lessons, it saw it as necessary to make the move.

The chairman of the party, Uche Secondus, had Monday apologised to Nigerians for the mistakes he said the party made under its 16-year governance of Nigeria, stating that the party had learnt its lessons.
The party has, however, criticised the reactions of the federal government and the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to the apology.
APC in a statement on Tuesday said the PDP will have to do more for Nigerians to forgive its misrule of 16 years, saying an apology is not enough.
The APC also called on the PDP to confess what it referred to as its sins.
The federal government also in a statement by Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, said the PDP will have to return the funds it looted for it to be forgiven.
