The Interim National Working Committee (INWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), said President Bola Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress (APC) are the Pharaoh chasing Nigerians towards the Red Sea.
The PDP which is reacting to President Tinubu’s Independent Day Broadcast where he said Nigerians have cross the Red Sea, said Tinubu is not the Moses who would lead the people across the Red Sea.
The party in a statement by the National Publicity Secretary Ini Emambong, told the president that Nigerians will elect their Moses in 2027, “who should save them from the Pharaoh and the economic pain that they are currently facing.”
PDP said unilke Pharoah (Tinubu) who lounges and vacations abroad while the people suffer and grumble endlessly, Nigerians want a Moses stays and goes with his people.
“He is embedded in, not detached from, the reality of his people,” the party stated, adding that “most Nigerians agree that no administration in the history of Nigeria has put the country through the economic pain, polarisation, disunity, insecurity and threat to democratic consolidation as the APC-led Tinubu administration.”
PDP expressed the belief that this year’s Independence Day would provide Nigerians with a reference point for the political engagement that next year’s election offers.
“Just as the patriots of the struggle for independence fought relentlessly to attain self-rule, Nigerians are determined to courageously fight to send this ruinous Pharaonic administration, led by Bola Tinubu, out of power.
“We know that Nigerians see beyond the political gimmicks and theatrics currently being employed to induce and confuse voters, including the positioning of themselves as the Moses leading a movement from pain to prosperity.
“Nigerians will see them in the real context in which they should be seen: the Pharaoh punishing and pursuing Nigerians.
“As citizens, we are assured that, like the biblical Israelites, Nigerians will escape the Red Sea and arrive in Canaan, but the pursuing Pharaoh and his team will not,” PDP stated.
