The Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP), described the attack by the
Presidency against the party as a feeble kick of a weak horse and a
failed attempt to beguile Nigerians.

Presidential spokesman, Garba Shehu had in an essay on Sunday
likened the PDP to a “university of lies,” which Nigerians are not
interested in bringing back in 2023.

Reacting to the development, PDP national publicity secretary,
Kola Ologbondiyan in a statement said the main opposition party “is
not surprised that the Buhari Presidency is rattled by the bitter
truth that Nigerians are fed up with President Muhammadu Buhari as
well as his All Progressives Congress, APC, and are rallying on our
platform to rescue our nation from misrule.”

The statement read in part: “It is indeed pathetic that the
Buhari Presidency thinks that it can beguile Nigerians again after
all they got from it in almost six years are failed promises, a
wrecked economy, weak currency, excruciating poverty, surging
unemployment, unbridled treasury looting, patronizing of bandits,
terrorists and kidnappers, double economic recession and a rapid
decline to the horrible status of a failed state.

“Under President Buhari, all security, economic, and social
indicators have gone negative. It, therefore, amounts to a slap on
the sensibility of Nigerians for the Buhari Presidency to attempt
to compare the once thriving lives of Nigerians under the PDP, to
the sorry state of affairs in our country, which has become a
terrorist haven and world poverty capital in a space of six
years.

“What can the Buhari Presidency say to the fact that when
President Buhari took over power in 2015, our economy was rated one
of the fastest-growing in the world with Fitch’s B+ rating, only
for his administration to wreck it within six years, turned our
country into a beggar nation that is now borrowing from all parts
of the world?

“When President Buhari took over from the PDP, our naira was at
N160 to a dollar. Today under the incompetent and corrupt
administration of APC and Buhari, our naira has fallen to almost
N500 to a dollar, wrecking our national purchasing power and making
Nigeria an object of jest among the comity of nations.

“Why won’t Nigerians be fed up with the Buhari Presidency when
under its watch, more than 30 million businesses have collapsed,
while over 60 million Nigerians have lost their means of livelihood
due to obnoxious economic policies that scare away both domestic
and foreign investors?

“Why won’t Nigerians be fed up with the Buhari Presidency when
under its voodoo economy, a liter of fuel, which sold for N87 per
litre under the PDP, now sells as high as N170 to N200 under the
Buhari and APC’s Eldorado economy?”

The PDP further stated that under the watch of President Buhari,
“staple food has gone beyond the reach of the majority of Nigerians
so much so that a bag of rice which sold for about N10, 000 now
sells for N30,000; that a measure of garri which sold for N100 now
sells for N350 to N400 and a litre of palm oil which sold for N200
now sells for up to N600? The list is endless.”

The statement continued: “Under Buhari’s watch, most families
cannot afford basic necessities of life; parents cannot pay their
children’s school fees, abandoned projects litter the nation;
hunger and starvation, divorces, broken families, strange disease
and sudden death have become so prevalent that compatriots prefer
suicide and slavery mission as options.

“Is it not distressing that terrorists that have been pushed to
the fringes by the PDP administration have resurged and now being
patronized by government officials as they ravage our communities
and behead our citizens?

“Today, not only that corruption has increased in our nation
under President Buhari as reported by reputable organizations like
Transparency International, Nigeria now ranks as the third country
with the highest level of terrorism in 2019, after Iran and
Afghanistan.

“Indeed, the situation is so bad that even Mr. President could
not summon the courage to honour an invitation by the House of
Representatives to give an account of how his administration has
managed the affairs of our nation.

“Why won’t Nigerians crave for the return of the PDP, a party
whose administration paid our foreign debts, grew the economy,
revolutionized the telecommunication, aviation, power, agriculture
and banking sectors among others, and gave life meaning in
Nigeria.

“The only achievement by the Buhari Presidency is stagnating the
economy, mortgaging of our sovereignty through the accumulation of
foreign debt, increase in taxes and tariffs, reneging in all its
promises, and making life unbearable for the people.

“As a party, the PDP challenges the Buhari Presidency to search
its conscience, reflect on the devastations it has brought on our
nation and accept that life is better under the PDP.”
