APC needs more than eight years to clean up PDP’s mess, says Doguwa

 

Alhassan Doguwa, majority leader of the house of representatives, says the All Progressives Congress (APC) needs more than eight years to “clean up the mess” created during the administration of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

 

Doguwa spoke on Tuesday during an interview with Channels Television.

 

On Tuesday, APC commenced its presidential campaign in the north-west geopolitical zone, with a rally at the Ahmadu Bello stadium in Kaduna.

 

Speaking on the flag-off, Doguwa said the people of the north-west are “indebted” to the country with Muhammadu Buhari, who hails from the zone, as president.

 

He said the north-west people will “pay back” by supporting Bola Tinubu, APC presidential candidate, who hails from the southern part of the country.

 

“The fact is that President Muhammadu Buhari cannot be expected to do everything at the same time,” he said.

 

“Eight-year tenure of office cannot be enough to put back the messes and problems we had encountered during the PDP misrule. We need more than eight years to finish up those things.

 

 “The fact here remains that you now have another Buhari — a master strategist, master planner, somebody who can think ahead of time, somebody who is connected internationally, and someone who had an example of good governance when he was governor of Lagos state.

 

“So, the belief now is that APC to be taken over by asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu will definitely consolidate and build on the gains already made by President Muhammadu Buhari.”

 

PDP was in power from 1999 till 2015.
