Senator Ita Enang, a former adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari on national assembly matters, has urged Nigerians to reject the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its candidates in this year’s general election.
According to Enang, the records of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in eight years surpass those of the PDP in 16 years.
The former presidential aide who spoke during the inaugural meeting of the Parliamentarians Directorate of Presidential Campaign Council of APC on Saturday in Uyo, also urged Nigerians to vote for APC and its candidates.
Enang, a director in the unit, said what the country is experiencing was the result of PDP’s years of mismanagement.
He said Akwa Ibom, despite being ruled by PDP, has benefited immensely from the APC administration.
“The APC administration led by President Muhammadu Buhari has done what the PDP could not do for over 15 years of their rulership in the country.”In Akwa Ibom for instance, President Buhari has built a fertiliser blending plant worth $2 billion dollars, constructed a power plant worth N6.4 billion, released over N150 billion for the reconstruction of Calabar-Itu- Ikot Ekpene highway and the Federal University of Technology.
“The state government has told the people for seven years that it is constructing industries for the state, but I have raw documents from the Cooperate Affairs Commission to show that all those industries constructed are not in the name of Akwa Ibom State or ministry of finance incorporated but are in the names of private individuals.
“For us to continue in the development of the country as we are witnessing today, everybody respective of the political party you belong should vote APC in the forthcoming general elections,” Enang said.
