presidential aspirant for the 2019 election.
PDP said this while noting that it has directed its organs not to
align with any particular presidential aspirant.
The party's spokesperson, Kola Ologbondiyan, said this in a statement
he personally signed and issued yesterday.
Ologbondiyan said that at no time did it through any of its organs
"zeroed in on a particular aspirant for the Presidential election."
The former ruling party also condemned the, "unabated killings across
the country, the protracted fuel crisis, the ploy by the federal
government to illegally withdraw from the Excess Crude Account and
attempts by the APC to use its phony restructuring agenda to once
again beguile Nigerians ahead of the 2019 polls."
PDP opposed the unilateral withdrawal of USD1Billion from the Excess
Crude Account by the federal government under any guise.
"We want to state unequivocally that neither the Governors' Forum nor
the Federal Executive Council has the power of appropriation of
Federation Accounts, as such powers reside with the National and State
Assemblies," the statement added.
