Chairman of the Senate Committee on Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Senator Smart Adeyemi, has said the All Progressives Congress (APC) did not do a good job in fielding Gen Muhammadu Buhari and Prof Yemi Osinbajo as its presidential and vice presidential candidates, respectively, saying they have committed two major mistakes against God and Nigerians.
Adeyemi said in an interview in Abuja yesterday that the party offended Nigerians by presenting Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (Retd), on the electorate while his deputy, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, a man of God, according to him, offended God by abandoning his pastoral calling.
He said APC made “a grievous mistake by picking Buhari as its presidential candidate and they capped that up by bringing Prof. Osinbajo. They went and lured a man of God from the church to join a dictator. He should be prepared to do restitution after March 28.
“By foisting Buhari on Nigerians; a man who ordinarily should be asking for forgiveness and doing restitution in his old age, the APC has wronged Nigerians. This is a man who is not even in tune with economic realities…”
He continued, “APC lured a man to betray his divine calling. Osinbajo should not be allowed to go back to Redeemed. He has betrayed the sheep he’s pastoring. I’m ashamed that he has betrayed his calling…
“He should undergo restitution and purification. Why? Because he has mingled in sinful activities. He has joined people in maligning a man chosen by God to lead Nigeria and left the path to align with a man that sinned against God and Nigerians.
“He’s now celebrating a dictator against the Nigerian people. It was Buhari who jailed people 150 years and 200 years in prison when he was head of state. Where have you ever heard of such sentences? If he thinks some people have forgotten, we have not.
The APC is a party that has been formed purely for vendetta purposes; the APC is only out to retaliate and settle scores with people and its unfortunate that a man of God is in cahoots with these group of people. The APC was formed purely for business purposes.
“Buhari today should be kept in isolation, praying for forgiveness of sins against God and the Nigerian people; for the oppression of the Nigerian people and the draconian laws he foisted on the people.”
Senator Adeyemi insisted that the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) would win the March 28 and April 11 polls with a landslide.
