And it will soon be buried very, very soon. I\u2019m arranging where we will put the dead body, the coffin has already been constructed. What remains now is to dig the grave. And already they will be digging the grave very, very soon.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cEven like that, the so-called NNPP national leader, he too, he says after losing everyone, he wants to come back to us, we will welcome him, because he\u2019s coming back home,\u201d Ganduje said.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The APC national chairman, however, charged the visiting group to be resolute and continue to support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu-led administration, even as he assured them of inclusion in the Party\u2019s activities.<\/div>\n<div>Responding to the claims, National Publicity Secretary of NNPP, Ladipo Johnson said that it will be belittling to dignify Ganduje&#8217;s dreams with a comment. He said that the poor governance being provided by the ruling party is as a result of the poor leadership provided by Ganduje to the party.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>According to him, &#8220;Comments from the APC Chairman, Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje are non inconsequential comments. It is a shame that the party at the centre will have such a person representing them.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>&#8220;If the APC, in their wisdom do not realise the type of person they have as their national chairman then that is their problem and that is indicative of the poor service they are rendering to Nigerians, that is why we have what we have now.<\/div>\n<div>&#8220;So we will not dignify his statement with a comment. He is still living in fools paradise&#8221;.<\/div>\n<div id=\"m_6591869892537475098ymail_android_signature\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mail-message-footer spacer collapsible\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Myke Agunwa The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, has said that the opposition parties in Nigeria especially New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP)&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":114954,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-117465","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-exclusive"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
