The Peoples Democratic Party has told the All Progressives Congress and its Presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), to focus on real campaign and try to win followers genuinely.
PDP National Publicity Secretary, Mr Olisa Metuh, in a statement in Abuja on Monday said “the APC ‘change agenda’ should be based on issues and not on change of dressing and religious gathering.
“This election is not about political window-dressing and dramatizing. What will count is record of performance and antecedents, in which President Jonathan stands taller than Buhari.
“It is therefore not surprising that the APC and its Presidential candidate will resort to organizing a kangaroo opinion rating in a failed attempt to cover up their inadequacies and manipulate public perception in their favour.
He said the APC poll had been designed in such a way to make the Nigerian public believe that 75 percent of the voting population is in support of Buhari ahead of the February 14 Presidential election.
Metuh alleged that part of the strategy was a disguised mobile phone balloting application being circulated by the APC, whereby a curious click elicits a thank-you message from them and automatically register the unsuspecting phone user as having voted in support of Buhari.
He urged Nigerians to be wary of this plot to deceive the public and truncate our democratic process.
