The National Executive Committee (NEC) of Nigeria’s biggest opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has blamed the worsening insecurity, economic hardship, high cost of food, and unemployment rate on President Bola Tinubu’s policies.
PDP NEC expressed concern over the act of terrorism, violence and mindless killings under Tinubu’s administration.
Africa Today News, New York reports that these were part of the resolutions reached during the former ruling party’s 98th NEC meeting held at its National Secretariat in Abuja on Thursday.
A communique issued at the end of the meeting reads partly: “NEC expresses concern over the ill-implemented policies of the insensitive APC administration, leading to worsening insecurity, harrowing economic hardship, soaring unemployment rate, high cost of food and other necessities of life with pervading misery and despondency across the country.
“NEC expresses serious apprehensions over the spate of acts of terrorism and violence including the escalated cases of mindless killings, mass abduction of innocent Nigerians and marauding of communities in various parts of the country.

“NEC condemns the insensitivity, nonchalance, incompetence and arrogance in failure of the APC administration which continues to conduct itself in a manner that shows that it has no iota of interest or commitment towards the wellbeing of Nigerians.”
Meanwhile, a former National Chairman of the party, Uche Secondus, has accused the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, of trying to create a crisis to make himself relevant before President Bola Tinubu who is “already getting fed up with his nuisance of bringing politics into the governance of the FCT.”
Secondus asserted that Wike was trying hard to create a non-existent crisis in the party.
Secondus said Wike is trying to create an impression of a supremacy battle with Atiku Abubakar.
