The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has alleged that bandits
were behind the alleged security breach at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
PDP said the alleged security breach was an indication that
Buhari lacked the capacity to secure Nigeria.
Unknown gunmen were said to have attempted to break into the
office of Buhari’s Chief of Staff, Ibrahim Gambari.
The President’s spokesman, Garba Shehu, had confirmed the
incident via his Twitter handle.
Shehu had said the alleged attack was unsuccessful.
Reacting, the former ruling party marvelled at the laxity of
security around the State House.
In a series of tweets, PDP said “is alarmed by the invasion
of Aso Presidential Villa by bandits and armed robbers,” adding that “the
development further points to the collapse of security command structure under
President @MBuhari’s incompetent watch.”
“The party says that the reported bandit assault on the
residence of the Chief of Staff to Mr. President, Prof. Ibrahim Gambari, within
the precinct of the Presidential villa, is too close to home and has heightened
apprehensions over the capacity @MBuhari Presidency to secure the nation.
“All over the world, the Presidential Villa, as the seat of
power and national sovereignty, is the fortress of the nation that ought to
have impregnable security.
“As such, any breach of security, particularly by outlaws
and in sequence, sends a clear danger signal to the overall security of the
nation.
“It is imperative to state that such security infraction,
that gave way for outlaws to invade the Presidential villa in sequence, in
spite of its perceptibly secured ambience, can only happen under an absentee
President, who have not demonstrated the required capacity expected of his
office,” it said.
The former ruling party urged the President to sit up to his
responsibilities of ensuring the protection of lives and properties of
Nigerians.
