PDP blames chaos in Presidential Villa on Buhari’s incompetence

Presidential Villa
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has said the feud in the Presidential Villa between the First Lady, Aisha Buhari, and family members is showing serious incompetence from the President, Muhammadu Buhari.
The PDP described the chaos as not only very disgraceful but abuse of office which, it stated, has signified that Buhari is ineptitude in managing the country.
The party through the National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, in a statement issued on Tuesday wondered why the president failed to manage disagreement in his home.
This, the PDP said the monumental failure witnessed in the infrastructure of the country and abject poverty faced by the citizenry further demonstrate that the Nation has a leader who is not capable of bringing national growth and stability.
“The chaos in the Villa further exposes the Buhari Presidency’s poor management of issues and highlights why it has failed monumentally in delivering on any of its responsibilities in governance, thus leaving our dear nation in a shambolic situation in the last five years.
“The feud further uncovers the impunity, disorderliness, and vanity that pervade the Buhari Presidency and how the once serious and productive seat of power has been turned into a house of comedy and an overcrowded quarter for illegal occupants.
“Nigerians can now see why it has become difficult for our nation to witness any stability or progress under the Buhari Presidency and why the Buhari-led Federal Government has been bedeviled by confusion, infighting, policy flip-flops, statutory violations, promotion of violence, ingrained corruption, and administrative indolence while millions of Nigerians wallow in poverty and neglect.
“Nigerians and the world can equally see why no one expects the Buhari Presidency to articulate any progressive idea or proffer and implement any solution to the myriad of economic and security problems it caused our nation; they can now see why there is no hope in sight and why compatriots are daily agitating for a new order, it stated.
Advising Buhari and the APC to apologise to Nigerians, the PDP urged the President to also vacate his office to pave the way for a more qualified person to lead the country.
Consequently, PDP has urged the National Assembly to investigate the matter with a view to ensuring sanity in the Presidential villa by probing allegations of illegal allotment of offices and apartments to unauthorized persons.
“The party notes that our dear nation has suffered enough disgrace from the Buhari Presidency and the All Progressives Congress (APC). The PDP, therefore, charges President Buhari to immediately apologize to Nigerians for his failures and be ready to vacate office for more competent hands, since it has become obvious that he is leading our country to nowhere.
“Furthermore, the PDP urges the National Assembly to investigate the alleged abuse of office by President Buhari following the revelation that he assigns official facilities in the Presidential villa to unauthorized persons that have no official roles in governance, and apply appropriate sanctions.
“The PDP also urges the National Assembly to sanitize the Presidential villa by probing allegations of illegal allotment of offices and apartments to unauthorized persons, including scammers and corruption fronts in Aso Rock,” it stated.
