The call by the House of Representatives saying that President Muhammadu Buhari should declare a state of emergency on security, with the growing rate of attacks and kidnappings across the country, has been supported by opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Thursday.
The party’s position was contained in a communiqué issued at the end of an emergency meeting of the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the party on Thursday in Abuja. The communiqué signed by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, partly read, “NEC lamented the heightened insecurity pervading all parts of our nation due primarily to the misrule of President Muhammed Buhari and All Progressives Congress as well as their failure to decisively tackle the menace of terrorism, banditry, kidnapping, bloodletting and acts of violence in our country. “NEC urged President Muhammadu Buhari to immediately declare a national state of emergency on security. “NEC also urged President Buhari to, without delay, convoke a national conference on Security so as to galvanize ideas and options to tackle insecurity in our country.
