Yusuf Buhari Turbaning: PDP Chides Insensitivity Of APC To Killings

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has condemned what it Sunday described as the insensitivity of the leaders of the All Progressives Congress, APC to the killings in the country who it claimed brushed aside the killings to party at the ceremony where Yusuf Buhari was turbaned.

“Is it not unpardonable that while the APC had failed to show empathy on the gruesome murder of scores of travelers who were burnt alive in Sokoto state, the massacre of over 15 worshippers in Niger state, other compatriots felled in Kaduna, Katsina and other parts of the country in the last few days, its leaders and officials in government had the time to attend the turbaning ceremony of President Muhammadu Buhari’s son in the same troubled Katsina state,” the PDP asked in a statement issued by its National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba.

“Is it also not provocative, vexatious and indeed the height of heartlessness that APC and its leaders party while Nigeria burns,” the PDP further asked.

Noting that the APC leaders were callous in attending the Yusuf Buhari turbaning with bandits on rampage elsewhere, the PDP said:

“Such callous assault on the sensibility of Nigerians which amounts to dancing on the graves of the victims of the attacks further exposes the APC as a party that is completely unfeeling to killings, attaches no value to lives and has no commitment towards the fight against terrorism in our country.

“The PDP, standing in solidarity with Nigerians, calls out the APC to come clean on its alleged connection to killings, the benefit it derives from violence and bloodletting and why it attaches no value to human lives.”

“The least Nigerians expect of the APC is to forcefully give its government a marching order to develop wholesome strategy to proactively tackle insecurity, including targeting the source of fund to terrorists, many of which were revealed by a foreign government, yet the APC government refused to take action.

“Unfortunately, the APC as a party of selfish and blood thirsty “political bandits” does not have the commitment, readiness or capacity to do so.”

The PDP further charged President Muhammadu Buhari to demonstrate leadership and empathy by personally visiting the troubled states in line with his campaign promise to lead the fight against terrorism from the front instead of always pushing his responsibilities to others.
