A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Segun Sowunmi, has labelled the All Progressives Congress (APC) as a gang of zombies.

On Monday, September 30, 2024, Sowunmi stated that the APC must be deceiving itself if it believes it is a political party.

Speaking in an interview on Channels TV’s Politics Today, the PDP chieftain mocked the APC for its failure to conduct a congress.

He said: “The PDP just did Congress all over the country, I can’t remember when last our rivals APC said anything like that.

“We are struggling to keep to the principles of democracy, it’s not a graveyard peace. People will have options and go to court.

“APC must be deceiving itself if it thinks it’s a political party, it might be in government and a special purpose vehicle for contesting election but it will be laughable for them to wake up in the morning and somebody threw away the Chairman, ordered to go and recruit another. It is a gang of zombies.

“With due respect, the APC must be deceiving itself if it thinks that it is a political party.”

Meanwhile, the national leader of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Rabiu Kwankwaso, described the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as a “dead party.”

Kwankwaso also tackled the All Progressives Congress (APC), stating that the party’s leader is disconnected from the realities facing Nigerians.

He said this in Abuja during the Party National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting. He mentioned that despite numerous challenges, the NNPP is the fastest-growing political party in Nigeria.
