Buhari’s Speech: Supporters Chide PDP’s Reaction

Buhari supporters Atiku

The Buhari Media Organisation (BMO) has likened the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to a bull in a China shop

This, according to the group, is clear from the party’s constant thoughtless and knee-jerk reaction to every single action of the All Progressives Congress (APC)-led Federal Government.

In a statement signed by its Chairman Niyi Akinsiju and Secretary Cassidy Madueke, BMO said PDP had been acting in the most irresponsible and reckless manner since the Covid-19 outbreak

“It is shocking that PDP broke its own record of irascibility by issuing yet another tasteless statement within minutes of President Buhari’s nationwide address on the pandemic, rather than heed the advice of Nigerians to join a non-partisan effort against coronavirus.

“In a bid to quickly put out a response, the party simply did a rehash of what has in recent weeks earned it a rebuke from well-meaning Nigerians who were tired of the constant politicisation of a global health crisis.

“For the party, it’s always about attempting to pick holes, but again PDP ended up exposing itself as a gathering of tactless and irresponsible people who are not concerned about the citizenry.

“So not surprisingly, the same bunch that were against a lockdown of the epicentre of Covid-19 in Nigeria are also criticising the decision to reopen the States in phases, with flimsy, pointless arguments.

“We want to put it on record that a PDP that had no qualms about holding political meetings, congresses and rallies in the middle of a pandemic cannot be said to be interested in the welfare of the people.

“There is also no sign of a coordinated effort by the opposition to offer any form of creative support to the PDP-controlled States, yet its leaders are quick to condemn all government efforts to stem the spread of the virus”.

It also urged residents of Kano not to see the President’s decision to impose a fresh two-week lockdown on the State as a punishment but to view it as a necessary step to avert a catastrophe, as well as get to the root of ‘mystery deaths’ in Nigeria’s most densely populated State.
