NDC Knocks Envious Rivals for Spreading Anti-Party Rumours Against Senator DICKSON

The Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, has denied claims in certain quarters that its leader is working for the ruling All Progressives Congress, ADC.

NDC’s National Publicity Secretary, OSA DIRECTOR, says such claims against the party’s National Leader, Senator SERIAKE DICKSON are malicious lies.

In a statement, OSA DIRECTOR said the leadership of the NDC would have ignored what he described as beer-parlour talk and murmurs for the fact that lies repeated overtime tend to be taken as truth by those who are gullible.

DIRECTOR maintained that the NDC has emerged as the largest opposition and fastest-growing political party in Nigeria, adding that the party’s National Leader has no deal whatsoever with the APC.

He said anyone who knows Senator DICKSON's public service record, will not associate him with any under-the-table arrangement to sabotage his own party and its Presidential candidate and running mate, PETER OBI and RABIU MUSA KWANKWASO.

“Senator DICKSON could have taken the easy way out by joining the APC. Instead, he chose the hard, honourable path of building a party with like minds, a party that will liberate Nigeria from the vice grip of the buccaneers currently in power” the NDC spokesman stated.

Furthermore, he said it was “wicked, vexatious and mendacious to associate his name with any compromise with the ruling APC and its key drivers.”

OSA DIRECTOR said the NDC was “fully aware that these unfounded and baseless allegations are emanating from the ranks of our political opponents, who are envious of the growing popularity, acceptability and organic spread of the NDC across the length and breadth of Nigeria.”
