| Theresa May |
The Peoples Democratic party has called at the British prime Minister, Theresa May, to use her state visit to Nigeria to find the alleged dismal state of the country by resisting what it called “choreographed plan by the Buhari Presidency to hoodwink her for an endorsement stunt.”
The party also called on the British leader not to allow the Buhari Presidency to confine her to the parlours of the Presidential Villa, but to insist on visiting different parts of the nation to permit her to appreciate the alleged level of lies and false performance indices which it said the Federal authorities had been doling out to the world.
The national publicity Secretary of the PDP, Mr Kola Ologbondiyan, stated in a statement in Abuja on Tuesday, that there have been plans by the Federal government to roll out erroneous figures all through the visit to deceive the global community.
He stated, “We had been made aware of plans via the Federal government to use the visit to dish out greater lies to the global community in an effort to cowl its failures in governance in the last three years, for which Nigerians are clamouring for a new President under the PDP.
“The PDP further charges the British prime Minister, as a parliamentarian, to take the Buhari Presidency to task on its unabated interferences and violent attacks on the institution of the national assembly, inclusive of threats to forcefully get rid of the elected presiding officers of the Senate, as well as the recent invasion and blockade of the national assembly by the Presidency-managed security forces.
“The PDP additionally wants the British leader to place President Muhammadu Buhari to task on his broadly condemned stand against the supremacy of the rule of law in addition to records of the violation of human rights in Nigeria.
“This consists of government’s disobedience to court orders, said extrajudicial killings, torture, illegal political arrests and detention, restrict of free speech and media freedom and lack of government’s accountability as specified in the reports by diverse international bodies, consisting of Transparency international, Amnesty international and the united states department of state.”
Ologbondiyan stated the British leader have to also elicit discussions with the President on the recent record by Price Waterhouse Cooper which he stated allegedly confirmed humongous corruption in his administration, including the situations surrounding the N4tn unremitted oil money in agencies under his direct supervision as a minister.
He advised the prime Minister to engage Buhari at the alleged violent rigging of elections under his watch and extract a commitment from him on his administration’s preparedness to organise free, fair and credible general elections in 2019.
He said there “are apprehensions throughout Nigeria,” that the President’s actions, utterances and body language suggest otherwise.
meanwhile, the PDP has asked President Buhari to give an explanation for the whereabouts of the alleged N4tn unremitted oil sales and other “financial rots in the Presidency” as detailed in the audit file by the Price Waterhouse Cooper, a firm commissioned via the administration.
The party said the report had further confirmed that Buhari have been presiding over what it defined as a completely corrupt administration, while at the same time posturing as Mr Integrity and pointing fingers at all and sundry else but himself.
The national publicity Secretary of the PDP, Mr Kola Ologbondiyan, stated in a statement in Abuja on Tuesday, that Nigerians, specifically those who he said had been protecting the Buhari administration, had been shocked via the revelations.
He stated it was more surprising that the alleged theft of N4tn could happen under the direct supervision of ‘sincere’ President Buhari, as minister of Petroleum resources.
He stated, “Nigerians also are stunned to learn how a few ministers under President Buhari stole N413m from agencies and parastatals using fraudulent imprests.
