The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), yesterday, said the outcome of the recent local government elections in Lagos State was a vote of no confidence on the administration of President Bola Tinubu.

The party insisted that President Tinubu was a one term president and therefore could not have a second term in office.

Also, the party has announced that it would hold its NationalExecutive Committee (NEC) meeting expected to commence Thursday to Friday this week.

Addressing reporters ahead of the NEC meeting, the National Publicity Secretary, DeboOlogunagba, said the outcome of the July council elections was a vote of no confidence in the APC.

Quoting a report from a chieftain of APC, Ologunagba wondered how the election would record only six per cent of the large voting population of Lagos State.

He explained that the outcome of the council election was an indication of the rejection of the APC by Nigerians and what would happen in 2027.

‘’So, what they simply did was to write whatever they are used to writing again. As they should know that 2027 is not about writing. It’s about the people saying no. The people of Lagos said no by silence.

“In 2027, they will say it loud by voting, and they will vote it out. President Tinubu would be a one term president. APC government is a clueless government,” Ologunagba said.

He added that under the Tinubu-led government, the economy had shrieked from a N550 billion economy to N180

On the level of insecurity in Nigeria, Ologunagba said lives no longer mattered as people were daily being killed and the government was not doing anything about it.

He, therefore, said the party would hold a historic three days NEC for the purposes of recalibration of the party.

According to him, “The NEC meeting will take place from Wednesday, Thursday and Friday,” adding that the meeting would discuss the zoning of critical offices of the party ahead of the coming NEC meeting.

He also said the relevant meetings like the Board of Trustees, the National Caucus and Ex officio members meeting would commence from Tuesday.

Ologunagba disclosed that those expected were those listed on section 31 section one of the PDP constitution.
