The Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) on Wednesday described the inauguration of ministers by President
Muhammadu Buhari as a “poor parade of recycled foot-travelers, many of whom
have failed Nigerians in governance
assignments.”
PDP said by assembling a team
made up of persons indicted for corruption and treasury looting, President
Buhari had demonstrated that he had nothing to offer to the nation other than
condoning and encouraging corruption, as well as perpetuating incompetence,
failure and ineffectiveness in governance.
In a statement by its
spoksesperson, Kola Ologbondiyan, the opposition party, however, said it was
not surprised that the President had “no clear-cut blueprint to rescue the
nation from the economic, security and social quagmires which his
administration had plunged our nation into in the last four years.”
The statement reads: “Of course,
Mr President has severally demonstrated a lack of required capacity to lead a
nation as complex as Nigeria especially at this trying times.
“At a ceremony where Nigerians
had expected the forceful articulation of a progressive policy thrust, Mr.
President bored the nation with an empty and directionless script that only
evoked more despondency in our nation.
“Instead of helping President
Buhari to offer hope, his handlers were more interested on photo-ups and
refreshments, away from serous business of governance.
“We invite Nigerians to note
President Buhari’s contemptible approach to governance and disregard to
ministerial portfolios as portrayed in the recent degrading of ministers to
clerical aides of Chief of Staff, Mallam Abba Kyari.
“Such demotion of ministers is
completely unacceptable, counter-productive and reduces governance to a
domestic affair.
“We feels the pains and anguish
of Nigerians, who by now would have been enjoying the benefits of the
much-desired economic recovery blueprint articulated by the peoples’ candidate,
Atiku Abubakar.
“Nigerians will recall that in
Atiku’s blueprint, proactive strategic policies and plans were laid out for
rapid interventions in critical sectors of our national lives to address the
security, economic and social problems caused by the Buhari administration and
return our nation to her pride of place.”
