The Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP), Thursday, told President Muhammadu Buhari to admit that he has failed in
his promise to end insurgency in the country, instead of blaming late Muammar
Gaddafi of Libya.
Kola Ologbodinya, spokesman of
the party in a statement said “For Buhari to have ran to Archbishop Justin
Welby to declare that the insurgents and marauders pillaging the people are
fighters from late Muammah Gadaffi’s Libya, confirmed the position of Nigerians
that President Buhari was incapable of handling the security challenges of our
nation”.
PDP also recalled that “in
November 2017, President Buhari had informed the Nigerian community in Abidjan,
Cote d’Ivoire that Gadaffi’s fighters were responsible for the escalation of
Boko Haram insurgency.
“This time, Mr President has
revealed that the killer-herdsmen ravaging our nation and killing our people
are from Libya”.
The opposition party wondered,
“If the All Progressives Congress (APC)-led federal government knew all these
that the marauders and insurgents are invaders, why is he engaging them in
dialogue, reportedly paying ransoms and even considering the amnesty option for
them.”
The PDP further asked Nigerians
to demand explanations from President Buhari on why his administration has been
asking the victims of marauders’ attacks in various states, particularly,
Benue, Taraba, Kogi, Nasarawa, Zamfara, Plateau, among others, to learn to
accommodate, if it knows that the attackers had links with Libya.
“Our take remains that President
Buhari and his dysfunctional APC should simply admit that they have failed to
safeguard the lives of our people as well as the territorial integrity of our
nation”.
“We therefore urge Nigerians to
continue to be at alert and support one another in this trying time,
irrespective of ethnicity, creed or class, as we collectively work to salvage
our nation from the misrule of the incompetent APC, come 2019”, the party said.
