In a strongly worded statement issued by the PDP’s Publicity Secretary, Halliru Andi, the party accused the APC of insensitivity to the suffering of Nigerians. The PDP questioned how any leader could endorse a president whose government has, within just over a year, plunged the nation into deeper hardship, hunger, insecurity, and economic collapse. The statement emphasized that the endorsement was not only an insult to Nigerians but also a reflection of the APC’s detachment from the realities faced by ordinary citizens.
The PDP further criticized the APC leaders in Zamfara, accusing them of prioritizing personal political survival over the welfare of the people. According to the opposition party, such gatherings are merely platforms for power-sharing among a privileged few rather than genuine efforts to address the state’s challenges. The PDP pointed out that under the Tinubu-led administration, Nigeria has witnessed worsening insecurity, skyrocketing food prices, and a deteriorating economy—issues that have hit Zamfara State particularly hard due to rampant banditry and killings.
The statement reassured Nigerians that the 2027 elections would mark the end of what it called the APC’s "era of deceit and propaganda." The PDP positioned itself as the only credible alternative, promising to restore hope, rebuild the economy, and secure the nation from the failures of the current administration.
The PDP urged the people of Zamfara and Nigeria at large to disregard the APC’s endorsement, labeling it as a staged event meant to distract from the ruling party’s failures. The party called on citizens to remain steadfast, insisting that a better future for Zamfara and Nigeria lies with the PDP.
The statement concluded with a firm declaration that Nigerians would overwhelmingly reject President Tinubu and the APC in 2027, just as Zamfara State has already rejected their policies. The PDP vowed to continue exposing what it described as the APC’s selfish and anti-people agenda while championing the interests of the masses.
