<p class="">The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has counseled the All Progressives Congress (APC) not to play politics with the Coronavirus (Covid-19) but join other well meaning Nigerians in seeking solution for the scourge.</p>
<h1>The party gave the advice in a statement issued by its National Publicity Secretary, Mr Kola Ologbondiyan, on Wednesday in Abuja.</h1>
<p class="">According to <strong>Ologbondiyan</strong>, it is on record that the APC was yet to offer any meaningful suggest on ways to address the raging pandemic.</p>
<p class="">“<em>Nigerians will recall that the PDP had on several occasions advised the Federal Government on effective pre-emptive measures as well as the need for concerted efforts and safeguards in the fight against Covid-19.</em></p>
<p class=""><em>“The PDP had been on the forefront in canvassing for stringent steps at our international ports and borderlines, consequent upon which President </em><strong><em>Muhammadu Buhari</em></strong><em> had approved international travel ban from 13 countries,” </em>he said.</p>
<p class="">Ologbondiyan recalled that the PDP presidential candidate in 2019 general election, <strong>Atiku Abubakar</strong>, on Tuesday advised the President to reduce the pump price of fuel and suspend stamp duties on all accounts as palliative measures against Covid-19, which was on Wednesday implemented.</p>
<p class="">He said that the PDP would not be distracted in its commitment to the wellbeing and safety of Nigerians.</p>
