\"ZAMFARA:<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)<\/a> has listed reasons President Muhammadu Buhari failed to address the nation on the May 29 Inauguration Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The opposition party, in a statement by its national publicity secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan on Sunday, said one of the reasons was because Buhari \u201cassessed his administration and rightly adjudged it a failure.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also said that Buhari must have been persuaded that he had nothing to tell Nigerians and that he saw reason with \u201cour party to avoid making false performance claims, which are wholesomely at variance with the situation on the ground.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The PDP continued, \u201cOf course, President Buhari probably did not want to face Nigerians with an empty scorecard and bagful of excuses for ruining our once robust economy; for failing to secure our nation, for failing to curb endemic corruption in his administration and for mortgaging the future of our nation with huge foreign loans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIndeed, Mr. President must have been weighed down by his failure, in this fiscal year, to harness our resources to provide even half of the 2020 budget formulated by his administration, for which the APC is ready to pawn the future of our nation to foreign creditors.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The party claimed that all the listed situations accounted for the Presidency\u2019s decision to \u201chide behind a 62-page false performances literature instead of allowing President Buhari<\/a> to face Nigerians in-person.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It added, \u201cWhat soothing words could Mr. President have for over 40 million Nigerians who had lost their jobs following the failure of his administration to run a viable economy as well as the over 500,000 N-power beneficiaries, whose engagements are set to be terminated barely a year after they were used to campaign for a second tenure for the APC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFurthermore, Mr. President is faced with providing answers for the fall in the value of our naira and the depletion of our foreign reserves; for the failure of his administration to reduce the price of fuel despite the price crash in the international market; for the comatose state of our critical sectors as well as the unbridled looting of over N14 trillion in the oil and gas sector under his watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPresident Buhari is equally confronted with the burden of not finding solutions for the killings in Sokoto, Katsina, Kaduna, Kogi, Zamfara and other states by marauders, kidnappers and insurgents despite claims by the government that the assailants have been routed out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn the same vein, President Buhari has no success story on the APC administration\u2019s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic<\/a>, which was marred by allegations of corruption and political parochialism, which frustrated an all-inclusive multi-sectoral approach in the effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The PDP and indeed most Nigerians appreciate President Buhari\u2019s decision not to address the nation and fall into the temptation of making false performance claims. Such would have further embarrassed his administration.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
