The Peoples Democratic Party has slammed President Buhari for holding the National Executive Council meeting of the APC within the council chambers in the statehouse.
The party in a statement released this afternoon, described the action as ''the height of corruption and a desecration of the sanctity of the seat of power and our national values.''
On Thursday, June 25, President Buhari attended the NEC meeting called for by Victor Giadom, acting chairman of APC. The meeting was held in the statehouse.

''The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) berates President Muhammadu Buhari for violating his oath of office by using the Federal Executive Council (FEC) Chambers and government resources to conduct the affairs of his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Our party describes this action of Mr. President, in using public facilities and resources for APC’s National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting, as the height of corruption as well as a desecration of the sanctity of the seat of power and our national values.
The PDP says never in the history of our nation has governance been so devalued to the extent of using the hallowed chamber of the highest executive body in the country, where high-level executive decisions are taken, for an illegal, wrongly constituted and Nicodemus meeting of a political party.
This shameful development is a further manifestation of the level of impunity, recklessness, disrespect for rules and disdain for our laws by the APC administration, whose latest action exposes a move towards instituting the art of running processes and programmes through illegality, illicitness, illegitimate and unlawful means driven by crude force and naked power."
