‘Consider Resigning If Overwhelmed By Nigeria’s Challenges,’ PDP Governors Advise Tinubu....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has been urged to consider stepping down from his role if he feels burdened by the multitude of challenges currently facing the nation…….CONTINUE READING

Governors elected under the banner of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) issued this call while expressing concern over the numerous issues plaguing the country under the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

In a recent statement, the PDP Governors stressed the importance of the ruling party fulfilling its obligations to tackle Nigeria’s problems instead of exacerbating them or resorting to blame-shifting and misinformation.

They pointed out that the hardships faced by Nigerians cut across tribal, religious, and political lines, emphasizing that “a hungry man is an angry man.”

The governors underscored that while every level of government has a role to play, it is primarily the responsibility of the APC-led Federal Government to rally Nigerians and all branches of government for sustainable solutions. Should the government be unable to fulfill this role, they suggested it gracefully step aside.

The opposition leaders further emphasized that the ultimate responsibility lies with the President, who serves as Nigeria’s Chief Executive Officer, the President and Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces, and the nation’s primary leader and advocate.

Nevertheless, they expressed their commitment to collaborating with the President to find lasting solutions to the challenges exacerbated or created by the APC since 2015.

The PDP Governors also expressed disappointment with the Minister of Information, the APC Governors’ Forum, and other officials of the APC-led Federal Government for criticizing the PDP-GF’s suggestions, advice, and patriotic efforts to chart a path forward for the country. This sentiment was outlined in a communique issued following their recent meeting in Abuja.

“The Minister of Information, APC Governors’ Forum, and other officials of the Federal Government who criticized the PDP Governors’ Forum for their patriotic intervention should remember that the APC sought power to solve Nigeria’s problems, not exacerbate them or shift blame,” the statement noted.

“PDP-governed States are among the best in Nigeria in terms of developmental policies, programs, and projects that positively impact their States, regular payment of salaries, pensions, gratuities, and the minimum wage to their workforce.

“States that fail to address these issues are not affiliated with the PDP. Such claims are inaccurate.

“Even the food crises are exacerbated by insecurity and high exchange rates, among other issues, which are primarily federal matters.

“The PDP Governors, as governance stakeholders, will continue to work collaboratively with Mr. President to find lasting solutions to the difficult situation exacerbated or created by the APC since 2015. We believe in cooperative federalism.

“We have faith that he is doing his best. We only hope and pray that his best is sufficient to lead Nigeria out of its current challenges as soon as possible,” the statement concluded, as signed by the Director-General of PDP Governors’ Forum, Hon CID Maduabum.
