ABUJA, Nigeria – The Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to convene a national conference to deal with the spate of insecurity in Nigeria. PDP made the call in a communiqué issued at the emergency meeting held on Thursday.
The party lamented the heightened insecurity pervading all parts of our nation, attributing the development primarily to the misrule of President Muhammed Buhari and All Progressives Congress (APC) as well as their failure to decisively tackle the menace of terrorism, banditry, kidnapping, bloodletting and acts of violence in our country.
