The People’s Democratic Party has accused President Muhammadu Buhari of playing politics with insecurity in the country.
National Publicity Secretary of the party, Kola Ologbondiyan made this known in a statement on Thursday, while reacting to calls by members of the All Progressives Congress in Diaspora, for the president to mention sponsors of terrorism in the country.
The Diasporan chapter the party had called on President Muhammadu Buhari to name sponsors of terrorism and banditry in the country.
Ologbondiyan who hailed the group for the call, stated that if the President truly knows the sponsors of terrorism in the nation, the right thing to do was to name and prosecute such persons.
He noted that the failure of the President and the government to expose such persons, is tantamount to aiding and abetting terrorism in the land.
“He should come out and name those that have made our country one of the most dangerous places to live on earth. Why is this government or Mr. President refusing to call out these people? Not mentioning their names is tantamount to aiding and abetting terrorism in our land,” he said
“It is not by mouthing ‘we know those sponsoring terrorism,’ go ahead and name them. We are happy that their members in Diaspora are now seeing things from the perspective of the PDP,” he added.
