Insecurity/Corruption: PDP Asks Buhari To Resign

Following rising cases of insecurity and alleged corruption in the country, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to resign.

National Chairman, Uche Secondus, made the call on Friday in a briefing tagged “Nigeria in a free fall, as corruption, insecurity engulfs the Nation.”

Secondus said “What we are witnessing in our country today is a total collapse of the nation, the country is on ventilator gasping for air, under such circumstance, President Buhari should do the honourable thing required of an elder statesman in situations like this, THROW IN THE TOWEL because nigeria is on and save the country from ruins.”

Seconduus decried the non attention accorded to critical issues by the Buhari administration, saying that it is obvious that “the ears we are targeting are deaf as nothing on ground shows that there is a government in this country”

He also said “No effort is being made from any angle to halt the on-going free fall being witnessed in all fronts in the country. Nigerians have become helpless and have come to accept and live like citizens of nations without leader and with no direction.”

He also took a dig at the administration in the area of insecurity, saying “having exhausted their propaganda of winning the war on terrorism only in their press releases, as reality endowed on all, both the military and political leaders are now helpless and confused.”

The national chairman said the call by the senate on Tuesday for the resignation of service chiefs has shown to the world that there is no executive arm of government in place.

On corruption, the PDP noted that “since transparency International said few years ago that the worst corruption was going-on in Nigeria under this regime, the situation has continued to worsen”.

The PDP further claimed that “corruption has now become a bazar with no pretense about it with all critical agencies of government including the anti-graft body themselves grossly engulfed in it.”
