The National Chairman of the All progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Aadms Oshiomhole has disclosed what he discussed with the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo on Thursday at the Presidential Villa. The former Governor of Edo State who spoke to State House correspondents expressed optimism that the APC will win the 2019 general elections said the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) was not an option.
“PDP is just not an option; particularly when their candidate is not a new face; there is no basis for benefit of the doubt. You can give benefit of the doubt to a stranger not to someone who was at the heart; perhaps one of most powerful vice presidents we have ever had.
“So, I am clear that Nigerians will not have any basis to give PDP the benefit of the doubt. I have not heard anybody say they have accepted the apology. People that have robbed you; they don’t apologise and say allow me back to your store room; you don’t do that.
“We are certain that even as we cannot talk of any perfect situation, nothing can make Nigerians get so confused as to think that those who mismanaged yesterday and those who were at the heart of that mismanagement can be entrusted with providing leadership for tomorrow.
“I do not think that is a question at all. PDP is out of this calculation as far as I am concerned.”
