Ologbondiyan added that since the president has demonstrated his preference for party politics above governance, he should take a crash course on party spokesmanship. He explained that no well-meaning Nigerian can truly support such a corrupt party and incompetent government that has failed and betrayed the nation. This is coming after the presidency said APC as a party has got the confidence of Nigerians and this has been shown by the recently held by-elections across the country. The 'verdict' was given in a statement by Malam Garba Shehu, a senior aide to President Buhari on media and publicity.
