The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) condemned President Muhammadu Buhari for being silent in the face of terrorists occupation, mass killings, kidnapping, acts of banditry and escalated insecurity enveloping all parts of Nigeria.
The party, in a statement by its spokesman Kola Ologbondiyan, also lamented that President Buhari had kept silent while the nation burns, accusing him of worsening the situation and emboldening terrorist elements to unleash more violence on the nation.

“Due to the incompetence, divisiveness and insensitivity of the Buhari Presidency, violence, killings, bloodletting and a gripping reign of terror have seized all parts of our nation and there is no hope in sight.
“It is a mark of failure that the Buhari Presidency and the APC appears unconcerned as terrorists and bandits take control of various parts of our country and even hoisted their flags in Shiroro, Niger State, a distance of about 200 kilometres to our Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Abuja.
“The Buhari Presidency and the APC appear unperturbed and are only interested in their 2023 power grabbing plot while terrorists are having a field day plundering and murdering our compatriots on daily basis.
“Our party has already been made aware of how the APC has been gaging its members from speaking out against the failure of the Buhari Presidency and the APC to tackle insecurity in our country.
“Nigerians are invited to note how APC Senator Smart Adeyemi, who dared to speak out against the failure of the Buhari Presidency on the floor of the Senate, was reminded by Senator Remi Tinubu that he, Senator Adeyemi, is not a member of the PDP and as such should not show concern to the ugly situation in our country,” the statement read.
