TRACKING_____The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has said Nigeria is sliding into bankruptcy, and blamed it on multiple taxation imposed on the people by the All Progressives Congress (APC)-led Federal Government.
PDP National Chairman, Prince Uche Secondus, who addressed the 89th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of the party, also regretted that Boko Haram insurgency has fully returned to the country.
Secondus said Nigeria is still at cross roads due to the inept leadership of the ruling APC government, noting that the security situation in the country has refused to abate while nothing concrete was being done by the government to ameliorate it.
“Nothing exposes the president’s insensitivity and distance from the reality and from the people like his shock that Boko Haram still exists.
“But what do we expect when the president’s chief security adviser is at loggerheads with the president’s number one aide? Your guess will be as good as mine on why this administration cannot move this nation forward.
“The president may have been deceived by the intelligence reports from his field men who continue to indulge in propaganda of claiming that the sect has been defeated even when the situation is worsening with banditry and kidnapping spreading all over the states.
“The truth about this country is that Nigerians don’t really know who is in charge. It appears that governance is in autopilot with government agencies in a free world harassing and intimidating perceived enemies,” he regretted.
He noted that even when the National Assembly, after reviewing the situation, asked President Muhammadu Buhari to overhaul the security system for greater efficiency, the government continued to demonstrate its insensitivity to the plight of Nigerians.
“Nigerians have never been as afraid of their lives as they are at moment in this country. It’s as bad as that,” he added.
