“The PDP is fully ready for the elections” – Olisa Metuh is optimistic



The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has declared it’s readiness for the 2015 general elections.

The ruling party says the support it enjoys among Nigerians from the ward to the national level is reason enough to guarantee victory in the polls.

While reacting to the All Progressives Congress’ allegations of plans to postpone the elections, the PDP described the claims as an attempt to divert attention from the alleged findings of the Department of State Service that it had devised means of hacking into INEC’s data base and clone Permanent Voter Cards.

In a statement issued in Abuja on Monday, January 12, through the National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Olisa Metuh, the PDP says it was apparent that the APC was not fully prepared to face the electorates.

He said: “The PDP is fully ready for the coming elections. Our leaders and members are working hard in all the nooks and crannies of the country leveraging on our existing grassroots appeal, wide-spread political structures, a track-record of performance and abiding affinity and loyalty to the people.”

“We have very popular and acceptable hard working candidates which the people are anxious to vote for. Our Presidential candidate, President Goodluck Jonathan, with verifiable achievements and commitment to national unity, remains the candidate the beat.”

“We have engaged on issue-based campaigns. We have effectively shown Nigerians that we can be trusted. Our amiable leader, President Jonathan, has demonstrated strength of character, sincerity of purpose in his handling of state affairs and Nigerians are desirous to demonstrate their support for him come February 14,” Metuh added.

Futhermore, he stated that the party in power had successfully disseminated its unique selling points and achievements to the electorates.
