This is quite an interesting take on an alias that was meant to depict the corruption that the PDP are well accused of. Take a look.
The National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP), Chief Olisa Metuh, has revealed why the party is known by many
Nigerians as 'share the money party', a slogan many believe has to do
with corruption.
On Tuesday while speaking at a one-day workshop on external
communication for PDP state and zone publicity secretaries at the
party’s National Secretariat in Abuja, said the party represents
national interests and that the slogan is because of the party's
philosophy and ideology to put the interest of the people first and the
developmental impact it attained over the years.
“The truth is that the reason why they call the PDP, share the
money is for us in the party, our philosophy, our ideology has always
been to transfer wealth from the public to the private sector and in
doing that we have been doing mindful of the fact that it is only when
there is progress in infrastructure development and other areas that you
can impact positively on the lives of the ordinary people. That is why people say, ‘PDP share the money,” he said.
The PDP spokesperson who mocked the All Progressives Party (APC)
told colleagues in the publicity unit that they should not be ashamed of
the appellation. Metuh said in the next two years, Nigerians will
begin to ask the governing All Progressives Congress (APC), “where is the money?”
