Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State has slammed President Muhammadu Buhari for tagging the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP as “failure.”
President Buhari during an interview with Channels Television on Wednesday, said what comes to his mind whenever the acronym, PDP is mentioned, is failure.
Reacting, Governor Ortom in a statement issued on Thursday by his Chief Press Secretary, Nathaniel Ikyur said it is the ruling All Progressives Congress that failed Nigerians by retrogressing the affairs of the nation.
He said, “as a critical stakeholder of the PDP, this is completely false. If anyone has failed, it is the Buhari led APC federal government that has failed by taking Nigeria from top to bottom.
“The PDP is ready to rescue Nigeria from the insecurity and economic horror placed on Nigerians by the APC”.
“Nigerians have absorbed enough hunger and misery in the hands of the All Progressives Congress (APC) misrule. Or is it possible that Mr. President is not aware that Nigerians are dying from his misrule.”
