The Peoples Democratic Party has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to leave resign from office without delay. The former ruling also asked Buhari to return the country to how he met it when he assumed office on May 29, 2015. Spokesperson and a member of the party’s National Caretaker
Committee, Prince Dayo Adeyeye, stated this in a statement he signed in
Abuja on Wednesday.
He specifically mentioned the statement credited to the Minister of Finance, Mrs. Kemi Adeosun that, “recession is a word”. Adeyeye said, “Is this statement as a result of ignorance, lack of
patriotism or in-line with President Buhari’s comment that his ministers
are noise makers? “For the record, recession is characterised as a period of negative
economic growth for two consecutive quarters, given rise to high rate of
unemployment, fall in output, increase in government borrowing, etc.
“Following this understanding, Nigeria’s economy is already near
depression. The crass ineptitude and lukewarm-attitude of this All
Progressives Congress government is no longer tolerable, and therefore,
we are calling on President Buhari and his team to return Nigeria to its
state of booming economy before they assumed office in May, 2015, and
then quit immediately to allow other capable leaders recover our ailing
economy”.
Adeyeye alleged that about three airlines, local and international,
and some banks, have allegedly suspended operations and sent their staff
on indefinite leave due to poor state of the Nigeria’s economy.
He said that Nigerians were aware that the PDP government invested
heavily in most of the nation’s airports, an action he said resulted to
alleged ‘facelift’ and improved operations through remodelling,
construction of new airports, refurbishing and equipping of the local
and international airports to meet best practices in the aviation
industry.”
