People’s Democratic Party has advised Tinubu on what to do inline with the ongoing protest.
The Party has faulted President Bola Ahmed Tinubu over his failure to address the nation despite the crippling nationwide #EndBadGovernance protest by some Nigerians.
Aggrieved youths have been on the streets since August 1, demanding an end to the current economic hardship and anti-government
In a statement on Saturday, the National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Hon. Debo Ologunagba, called on Tinubu to end his silence and address the protesters.
The opposition party also condemned the shooting and killing of unarmed protesters, alleging that the All Progressives Congress (APC) mobilised thugs to disrupt the ongoing protest.
The statement reads, “The PDP demands that President Tinubu immediately address Nigerians on urgent steps to reduce the price of petroleum products, stem the fall of the Naira and ensure speedy provision of food among other critical issues so as to revamp the productive sector, stimulate employment and restore stability in the polity.
“Our Party expresses concerns that President Tinubu’s silence is sending a very dangerous signal and heightening public apprehension that the All Progressives Congress (APC) government is insensitive to the feelings of the citizens and the overall sorry state of affairs in the nation.
“It is indeed worrisome that President Tinubu could remain silent as Nigerians are on the streets demanding for good governance, protection, security and welfare, which are the primary purpose of government.
“The world is watching in horror as operatives of APC-controlled security agencies assault, shoot and kill unarmed protesters, with thugs allegedly mobilized by the APC also unleashing violence on innocent Nigerians.
“Our Party calls on President Tinubu to end his silence, immediately address the nation and reassure the citizens on issues agitating their minds, particularly the reduction in the price of petroleum products and food items.”
