Festus Keyamo, the chief spokesperson for the All Progressives Congress (APC) 2023 Presidential Campaign Council, has questioned the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)’s planned protest over the outcome of the 2023 presidential election.
Keyamo, who is also Nigeria’s Minister of State for Labour and Employment, stated that he does not understand the logic behind the PDP’s planned protest.
The PDP National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, is set to lead a protest march to the Independent National Electoral Commission headquarters in Abuja, over the outcome of the February 25 presidential election.
According to a notice issued by the party on Sunday, the planned protest will begin at 10 a.m. from the PDP headquarters at Legacy House, Maitama, Abuja.
The opposition party also instructed members planning to attend the protest march to dress in black to reflect the party’s solemn mood.
The planned protest was intended to demonstrate the PDP’s displeasure with the outcome of the presidential election on February 25.
However, on Twitter, Keyamo asked if the protest would also raise concerns about the alleged rigging by the Labour Party (LP) or why the APC candidate Bola Tinubu won in the southwest.
Not satisfied, Keyamo asked if the PDP would like areas won in the north to be canceled.
He wrote:
I understand PDP is planning a protest. Question: are they also protesting that LP rigged in the areas where LP won? Are they saying @officialABAT should not have won the South West? Are they calling for cancellation of areas they won in the North? What really are they saying?
