The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has rejected the ‘incurable virus’ tag slammed on it by former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Babachir Lawal.

The PDP said Lawal’s tenure in government can best be remembered by controversies rather than impact.

The major opposition party also accused the former SGF of speaking from a place of political irrelevance and bitterness.

This position was made known in a statement on Wednesday by the PDP Acting National Chairman, Amb. Umar Damagum, through his Special Assistant on Media and Communications, Yusuf Dingyadi.

The assertion of the PDP follows an earlier submission by Lawal, who said the PDP cannot be adopted for the planned 2027 coalition because the party has an incurable virus.
