Those Who Accepted ‘Spaghetti, Wrappers’ Now Facing Hardship – Damagum Mocks Nigerians Who Voted Tinubu
Damagun spoke while addressing journalists after a close door meeting with the governor and other stakeholders of the PDP.
The embattled Acting National Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Umar Damagum has reacted to the hardship and hunger in the country.
He mocked Nigerians who supported the current government under President Bola Tinubu, saying they are now enduring the consequences of trading their votes for items like spaghetti and wrappers.
According to Damagum, the ongoing hardships faced by many should serve as a lesson to prioritise credible and capable leaders over short-term inducements.
Recall that Damagum, who was reportedly suspended by a faction of the PDP’s National Working Committee (NWC) along with National Secretary Samuel Anyanwu due to alleged disloyalty visited Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed, who doubles as the Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, governors forum on Friday.
The visit to Bauchi is part of efforts to address the internal crisis rocking the party.
Addressing journalists after a close door meeting with the governor and other stakeholders of the PDP, he said “the APC was never ready to govern, so what good could possibly come from them?” he asked.
“Those who accepted spaghetti and wrappers to bring in this government are suffering the most, and this should serve as a lesson. We must seek credible, proven, and tested leaders who are genuinely prepared to govern, not those who simply say, emi lo kan,” (SIC) he stated.
Damagum expressed concern over the continued hardship many Nigerians are enduring, which he attributed to policies from Tinubu’s administration under the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Speaking on Damagum’s visit, Governor Bala Mohammed, denied the existence of any faction within the PDP.
He also reassured that the issues of suspension and internal crises would be resolved amicably.
