People's Democratic Party (PDP) Kwara State chapter, has charged opposition parties in the state to offer credible alternatives to government's programs and shun petty politicking.

In a statement issued in Ilorin by the party's secretary, Prince Yemi Afolayan, the party said the opposition has elevated empty criticisms of government policies and officials to an art in a futile attempt to gain relevance in Kwara Politics.

The PDP, which accused the ACN and other opposition parties in the state of trying to create disenchantment in the populace through falsehood and negativity, said only through credible opposition can the current democratic experience in the country can strengthened for the sake of the people.

"The opposition should rise beyond playing peti politicking and engage with the PDP administration at the level of credible ideas and policies. The evolving transformation of Kwara State midwife by former Governor Bukola Saraki and continued by Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed is there for all to see. Opposition parties should proffer superior alternatives instead of criticising for its sake", it said.

The party said it has uncovered plans by the opposition to heat the polity by indulging in disinformation and attacking government programmes regardless of the merits of such initiatives.

However, the ACN Governorship candidate, Mr. Dele Belgore who spoke through his media aide, Rafiu Ajakaye told our correspondent in reaction that "we will not have PDP to continue to lie to the people. The earlier they learn to be truthful, the better. The era of barefaced lies, deception is gone".
