Nigeria is in trouble with PDP

A former Head of State, Gen. Muhamadu Buhari (retd.), on Wednesday said Nigeria was in trouble with the way the Peoples Democratic Party had been ruling the country.

Buhari, who inauguarated the 12,000 Seater Ekiti Parapo Square in Ado-Ekiti, described next year’s election as a “watershed” in Nigeria, urging Nigerians to vote out the PDP.
He said, “We have been traumatised with what is happening. You here are mostly the elite. Please try and realise that Nigeria is in trouble if we carry on the way the ruling party is carrying on, then the nation is heading towards a serious crisis.”

He urged the elite to plead with their people to obtain their voter cards, which he described as “the only weapon” to vote out the PDP in the coming election.
He added, “Next year, I believe is going to be another watershed in the Nigeria political scene.”
According to him, the APC was formed as a merger party to chase away the PDP and as a credible alternative party.

“That is why it is important for we  elite to talk to the less privileged to collect their permanent voter cards in preparation for the 2015 elections. This is the only missile against the PDP tyranny.
“We must take this seriously because the APC is seriously determined to offer a better alternative platform for Nigerians. So we have to be prepared for next year elections.
“Nigeria deserves democracy and we are going to get it God willing next year,” he added.
The inauguration of the Square coincides with the fourth anniversary of Governor Kayode Fayemi’s administration and to celebrate Nigeria’s 54th independence anniversary.
Buhari praised Fayemi for his outstanding success in the last four years, expressing joy to be part of the governor’s success stories.

“I am indeed very happy to be part of this success story. Fayemi has been able to prove that what is expected of any leader is selfless service.
And I want to believe that all these legacy projects will remain in his name forever even  after leaving office,” Buhari said.
Fayemi said the projects and other legacy projects slated for inauguration were part of activities for end-of-tenure programme of events which he said were put in place to celebrate “our administration’s Legacy of Honour and Service – Aseyori Ifarasin Pelu Iyi.”
