The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has described the Muhammadu Buhari-led administration as a nation’s destructive government, saying that it has destroyed the nation from all ramifications.
According to the party, “On the economy front, the Muhammadu Buhari administration has wrecked our once robust economy, destroyed the value of our naira and turned our nation into world poverty capital, where life has become so unbearable that compatriots now resort to suicide and slavery mission abroad as options”.
The Party cautioned the All Progressive Congress (APC) led government in Nigeria to stop playing with the sensibilities of Nigerians by their arrogant dismissal of wise counsel on how to redeem Nigeria.
Stressing that the nation has experienced a complete leadership failure, the party is sad that Buhari has consistently rebuffed wise counsel and continue to drive the country to the precipice instead of seeking help for the sake of millions of traumatized Nigerians.
Pointing out that Nigeria now has a rudderless government with a dysfunctional command structure that could not guarantee security, manage economy as well as perform very simple tasks of governance, PDP affirmed, “Our great nation now tends towards a leaderless society where terrorists, bandits, kidnappers, marauders and vandals have taken the lead, running riotous across our land while those who promised to protect lives and property have gone into hiding in Aso Presidential Villa. Under President Buhari, life is fast tilting towards Hobbesian state of nature; driven by the combined negatives of an incompetent and unconcerned Presidency and a reckless, kleptomaniac and dysfunctional ruling party that is more interested in power-grabbing instead of governance”.
“President Buhari has badly failed in governance to the extent that over 600 students could be kidnapped by bandits in his home state, Katsina, a few hours after his security machinery took over the state, where he had gone to holiday. Under Buhari’s watch, our command structure has become extremely weak that government officials now patronise bandits and rationalise acts of terrorism to the extent of blaming victims for not obtaining permission before living their normal lives as was the case in the 43 farmers beheaded by terrorists in Borno state”, the party concluded.
