The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has decried the state of Nigeria’s economy under the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.
The opposition party said that the nation’s economy has collapsed under the leadership of the All Progressives Congress and President Buhari.
Speaking at the unification meeting of the PDP in Abeokuta, Ogun state, the national chairman of the party, Uche Secondus, said the opposition will conduct a congress in 2020.
Secondus said the congress will help the PDP solidify its effort to ensure a formidable party ahead of the 2023 general elections.
He said: “There are so much hunger and killings in the land such that we have never witnessed before. The number of people that have been killed since the inception of the APC government is so much that you can’t place the record. There are so many killings now in the country than we had even during the civil war.”
Continuing on the growing rate of killings and kidnappings across the country, the PDP chairman called on Nigerians to unite against criminality.
He said: “We must be wise and unite ourselves because we are all democrats, the entire world is watching, the will of God must be done.”
“Nigerians have been fooled by the APC. Do you have an economic blueprint? The economy has collapsed. Nigeria is divided and we are being disgraced outside the country,” Secondus said.
