Buhari Replies PDP On Plans To Impeach Saraki While In London
By: sparrow Date: August 2, 2018, 6:29 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
The Presidency, Thursday night denied allegation by the
opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, that President
Muhammadu Buhari’s planned 10-days leave to London was a plot to
impeach
the Senate President, Bukola Saraki.
The presidency in a statement by the Senior Special Assistant to
President Buhari on Media and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu in
Abuja, said Buhari is a democrat that does not indulge in any
unconstitutional and illegal act.
In the statement titled “Nigerians don’t believe PDP anymore”
called on the opposition party to proffer solutions to issues in
the country rather than ‘cry wolf’
The statement read: “Claims by the failing Peoples Democratic
Party that President Muhammadu Buhari had taken a token a 10-day
leave in order to leave the stage for illegal and
unconstitutional actions by the administration are both
ridiculous and a hollow narrative to garner cheap sympathy.
“That the President, himself a sworn democrat had handed power
to his deputy without compulsion is itself exemplary and
innovative, something that the PDP failed to produce in their
sixteen years of monumental mismanagement and sadistic plunder.
“For the benefit of the doubters, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, SAN,
the Vice President who acts in the absence of the President is a
lawyer of the highest rank and a social rights crusader who had
received local and international acclaim before he took the
president office.
“It is inconceivable that this is the team to copy the bad
manners cast in stone in the PDP.
“We welcome objective criticism and take them seriously and
humbly, but Nigerians must by now be tired of a party, the stock
in trade of which is to cry wolf where there is none, ostensibly
to spread negativity and distract the President’s attention from
the cleansing operations he has been mandated carry out.
“The President is carrying out difficult reforms for the future
growth of the country, such as the implementation of the ease of
doing business, the Treasury Single Account, TSA, the
whistleblower process, and hundreds of others, including the
massive investment in rail, roads and power.
“If such reforms had happened in 16 years of the PDP, it would
have made things much better for the country. “Instead, they
seem to be fixated with a desperate quest for power, nothing but
power for its own sake because they have nothing to offer. They
draw a sadistic pleasure when things appear to be going wrongly,
yet they offer nothing by way of remedy or solutions.
“The whole country is fighting corruption and the ordinary
citizen is happy about all that is happening. The economic
parameters have changed for the better, a clear indication that
the administration’s political and economic strategies are
working but the opposition is not interested.
“If the PDP doesn’t have anything that would help our farmers,
women, the common man and the youth, they should just keep
quiet.
“In the end, one thing Nigerians should take away from the
cacophonous falsehoods from the PDP and the tenants back in
their tent is that they all fear one thing, that their old
records will be reopened.”
