The All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for president, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is reportedly confused by the success and notoriety of the party’s nominee, Atiku Abubakar, according to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
The APC presidential candidate is ineligible to run for office, according to the PDP.
At the APC women’s campaign council’s inauguration on Monday at the Presidential Villa, Tinubu referred to the PDP as a termite party.
The opposition party said that only the APC can be referred to as a termite party in a statement released by its national publicity secretary on Wednesday.

“The doomed APC that is crawling, having been legally handicapped and no longer a genuine and valid vehicle to field candidates in the 2023 general elections,” the PR scribe claimed.
PDP described it as disgraceful that APC Presidential Candidate, who is allegedly facing multiple legitimacy and disqualification issues, is displaying such vacuity in the public domain.
The statement read in part: “For emphasis, the PDP is a serious political Party campaigning on issues and we have refrained from commenting on the many personal, health, academic, ancestry and corruption issues challenging the APC Presidential Candidate.
“Apparently, dazed by the resounding presentation of the PDP Presidential Candidate, Atiku Abubakar at the hugely successful flag-off of our Presidential Campaign in Uyo, Akwa-Ibom State, on Monday, October 10, 2022, Asiwaju Tinubu has become disoriented to the extent that he can no longer articulate or engage in any productive and focused political discourse.
“This explains why the APC cannot constitute a Presidential Campaign Council, let alone flag off its campaign.
“Though the APC Presidential Candidate has demeaned himself before Nigerians, the PDP as a decorous Party will still refrain from commenting on the issues of his personal health and alleged unwholesome addictions for which he has become a butt of public joke.
“Since he procured the APC ticket, the APC Presidential Candidate has not made any meaningful comment or contribution to serious national issues, instead he has been engaging in illogical, incoherent and fatuous utterances.

“Our Party cautions Asiwaju Tinubu to advise himself, guard his utterances, face his many legitimacy and disqualification issues and stop making himself an object of public ridicule.
“What is expected of Asiwaju is to apologize to the nation for the woes and suffering brought upon Nigerians by the misrule of the APC which he helped to install and for which Nigerians hold him personally responsible”.
