Chiefs of the All Progressives Congress in Ado-Ekiti , Ekiti State, on Wednesday blamed the Peoples Democratic Partys 15 years of misrule for the poverty and spate of insecurity in Nigeria.

They spoke at the official presentation of the APCs governorship candidate Governor Kayode Fayemi by the interim National Chairman, Chief Bisi Akande, ahead of the June 21 governorship election inthe state.

The criticism followed the spate of bomb blasts in the country and the abduction of of 200 pupils of Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State by the Boko Haram group.

Reports said no fewer than 150 people died in Tuesdays twin bomb blasts in ever-busy Jos Terminus Market, Plateau state. On Thursday, two schools in Bauchi State were attacked while Kano city was bombed on Sunday.

A minute silent was observed at the rally in honour of victims of such attacks in Nigeria.

Imo Governor, Rochas Okorocha who called out governors of the APC to present their endorsement letters to Fayemi lamented that Nigeria was going through a very difficult moment.

Referring to the Tuesdays bombing, he said, Many may not agree that today Nigeria is going through a very difficult moment. Let me say that a nation like Nigeria that is facing extreme danger of daily bombings, killings and blood letting should better seek the wisest cause of action and not of mourning.

A former Governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, said the APC was the cure to Nigerias headache, ineptitude, insecurity, poverty and unemployment.

He said, On the morning of election, you have nothing to fear. Dont be afraid, go there, demand your rights, you will not have this (opportunity) again until another four years. This is the opportunity to show your happiness and the rejection of the property development party.

A former military Head of State and chief of the party, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, commended Fayemi whom he said through his achievements had demonstrated the capability of a good leader in the trying time of Nigeria.
