Robbery attempt in Aso Rock shows Buhari can’t secure Nigeria, says PDP

THE People’s Democratic Par­ty (PDP) has reiterated that it doubts President Buhari’s capacity to secure the nation following an attempted burglary on the Aso Rock residence of his Chief of Staff, Ibrahim Gambari.

In a statement issued yesterday, the PDP spokesman, Kola Ologbondiyan said that the report­ed burglary is too close to home and has height­ened apprehensions over the capacity of the Buhari pres­idency to secure the nation.

The PDP further expressed misgivings that “if President Buhari cannot guarantee the security of the Presidential Villa, then his capacity to secure the entire country is no longer assured.”

The statement further read, “All over the world, the Presidential Villa, as the seat of power and national sover­eignty, is the fortress of the nation that ought to have im­pregnable security.

“As such, any breach of se­curity, particularly by outlaws and in sequence, sends a clear danger signal to the overall se­curity of the nation.

“It is imperative to state that such security infraction, that gave way for outlaws to invade the Presidential Villa in sequence, in spite of its perceptibly secured ambi­ence, can only happen under an absentee president, who has not demonstrated the required capacity expected of his office,” the party said.
