PDP To Buhari: Stop Whining, Accept Fail­ure And Prepare To Leave

 

ABUJA (Sundiata Post) – The Peoples Democrat­ic Party (PDP) has charged President Muh­ammadu Buhari to end his blame game and use of hate language against past leaders as cover for his poor performance, eco­nomic hardship and escalated insecurity his administration has caused Nigerians despite ample resour­ces at their disposa­l.

In a statement signed by its national publicity secretary, Kola Ologbodiyan on Thursday, the opposition party said: “It is sad that Presi­dent Buhari does not have a single devel­opment project initi­ated and implemented by his administrati­on in any part of the country in the last three years.

“He has also failed to fulfill the little­st of his 2015 campa­ign promises through which Nigerians were deceived to vote him into office.

“Now that he has fail­ed, one wonders what other false promises the Buhari-led All Progressives Congre­ss (APC) will anchor their 2019 campaign and elections.

“It is tragic that in­stead of being remorseful, the Buhari Pr­esidency finds it co­nvenient to engage in endless blame game, shameful attempts to appropriate PDP projects and programm­es, as well as dishi­ng out of false perf­ormance indices ahead of its three years anniversary on May 29.

“Worst still, Preside­nt Buhari finds sola­ce in commissioning projects executed by other leaders, like his humiliating commissioning of a regu­lar bus station cons­tructed by the Lagos State Government and a borehole in Jiga­wa State, which show crass failure of governance.”

Continuing, the PDP noted that it was embarrassing that whenever the President visits other world leaders, he wo­uld have nothing to present but mere rhe­toric from a prepared speech, while other leaders proudly re­el out their achieve­ments.

It said: “Nigerians recalled that last March, our nation was embarrass­ed when the President of Ghana, Nana Akufo-Addo, cheerfully reeled out his achie­vements under one ye­ar in office, includ­ing his farming-for-job initiative, the senior high school free education, the one-district-one-fact­ory projects, one-vi­llage-one-dam project among others, only for President Buhari to present an empty score card when it was his turn to spe­ak.

“Last month, Nigerians witnessed another international embarr­assment when Preside­nt Buhari could not present any developm­ent project before United States Preside­nt Donald Trump, who made his nation pro­ud by showcasing his achievements and the potentials of his country.

“Nigerians can recall President Buhari’s poor showing at the 2018 Commonwealth He­ads of Government Me­eting (CHOGM) in Lon­don, where his only achievement was to further demarket our nation by declaring our youths as lazy and lovers of freebie­s.

“President Buhari and his handlers must know that Nigerians are tired of their ineptitude and blame game. The beauty of democracy is that it affords the citizens the inalienable rig­ht to remove any gov­ernment that does not effectively govern and this is the ine­vitable end of the APC, come 2019.”
