Don’t Insult Buhari In This Eid-el-Maulud, Christmas Season – PDP

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) charges Nigerians to use this year's Eid-El-Maulud and Christmas to offer special prayers for the unity and stability of the nation as well as recommit their individual and collective security and economic welfare into the hands of God.The PDP said the special prayers have become essential as the nation is now, more than ever before in dire need of divine intervention, especially as citizens cope with the sudden hardship occasioned by poor management of thenation's economy in the last seven months.The party, in a statement signed by the National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh on Thursday said the two important celebrations, coming at this trying time, offers the citizens an opportunity to put aside every political, religious and ethnic differences and unite against their prevailing common challenges."Nigerians across board have in the last few weeks been recalling the campaign promises made by President Buhari and the APC, particularly, their December 24, 2014 Christmas message wherein they promised several reforms and welfare programmes that will, in their own words, 'begin to positively impact on the citizenrywithin its (APC) first few months at the helm, to such an extent that Nigerians will have a better Christmas celebration in 2015'."Whilst we understand the indignation, frustration and disappointments occasioned by the long list of unfulfilled promises and dashed expectations under the current regime (and justifiably so), we urge that Nigerians should notrecourse to hauling insults on the President as such would not bring the succor they seek."The challenges we face today as a nation shouldnot make us lose our dignity and demureness as a people. They should not make us miss the essence and meanings of Eid-El-Maulud and Christmas and the divine succor they bring, especially the assurance that there is always an end to every negative situation."The PDP therefore calls on all Nigerians to use the occasions to reflect on those things that bind us together as a nation; show love to one another and commit the nation into Gods' hands, even aswe charge the political class to be conscious of divine accountability in all their dealings"On this note, the Acting National Chairman of the PDP, Prince Uche Secondus, on behalf of the PDP National Executive Committee (NEC), wishes all Nigerians joyful Eid-El-Maulud and Christmas celebrations.
