Exchange of hot words ensued on Tuesday between the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), over President Muhammadu Buhari’s real date of birth.

The fight was triggered by the President himself over his declaration that he had all the while believed he was 74 this year until being told that he actual was 75 this year, with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), calling for his resignation.

The party’s Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Diran Odeyemi, in Osogbo, Osun State, described the President’s utterance as a “national disgrace.”

However, APC National Chairman, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, said the call for the President’s resignation by the PDP was “totally stupid and unnecessary,” insisting that the opposition party lacked “the morality to see the innocence in Buhari’s admittance.”

The PDP claimed many Nigerians and the global community must were taken aback that a 21st century leader of a country like Nigeria did not know his real year of birth

Speaking earlier, APC National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, said that the ruling party was not obliged to react to everything from the PDP.
