A former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Babachir Lawal, has described the duo of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP and the All Progressives Congress, APC, as the old system which represents ‘darkness’.

Babachir said he has seen the light and left the darkness.

The former SGF stated this on Friday while featuring on Channels Television’s 2023 Verdict programme.

Babachir explained that he dumped APC to support Peter Obi of the Labour Party, LP, after realizing he (Obi) was the ‘light’.

“I have seen the light, and you can repent when you see the light. I saw the light and repented. The light is Peter Obi; the darkness is the old system that used to govern us, which is represented by both the PDP and APC. Same people, same agbada, same red caps, so Nigerians have seen the light, not only me,” Lawal said.

He added that President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration, which he was part of, didn’t function well and failed to live up to expectations.
