Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has revealed the role Buhari led-administration reportedly played in the execution of Rev. Lawan Andimi, CAN Chairman by Boko Haram insurgents.
PDP stated that the non-prosecution of religious freedom violators has emboldened their acts of terrorism.
In a statement released by Kola Ologbondiyan, PDP Spokesperson, the party accused President Buhari of lip-service prosecution against insurgents, noting the recent killing of Lawan Andimi, Chairman of Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has indeed proved the gross incompetence of his administration.
“The failure of the Federal Government to prosecute the war against acts of terrorism beyond lip service and condolence statements is emboldening killings, which have now degenerated to execution of compatriots, the latest being the gruesome beheading of the Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), in Adamawa, Rev. Lawan Andimi.
“The execution of Rev. Andimi is heartrending and like other killings, remains a sad commentary of the inability of a government to stand for its citizens at very crucial moments.
“We recall that the Buhari-led Federal Government had failed to prosecute the masterminds of the mass killings in Benue, Nasarawa, Bauchi, Taraba, Kogi, Adamawa, Borno, Yobe, Zamfara, Kaduna, Ekiti and
other parts of the country under the current administration.

The statement further said “Moreover, the body language, brazen acts of nepotism as well as divisive and incendiary comments by officials in the Buhari administration have continued to fuel disunity, acts of violence and insecurity in various parts of our nation.”
