“However, despite this belated grovelling apology, PDP will need to come clean, confess to their sins and fully atone for it, before restitution is considered.

“As they say, to err is human but forgiveness is divine. We join PDP in praying to God to forgive them, but Nigerians are human who are still suffering from the years of PDP's misrule.

“Even if Nigerians are gracious enough to forgive, they will not forget in a hurry,” Abdullahi added.

Similarly, the minister of information and culture, Lai Mohammed has asked the PDP to return all funds ‘looted during its sixteen-year rule.
