The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has berated President Muhammadu Buhari for giving excuses over the incessant killings in Zamfara state.
The opposition party said, if the President was finding the “job too difficult to do, he should call for help or quit.”
Speaking with newsmen, the National Chairman of the party, Prince Uche Secondus, said the President should act as a father to the entire nation.
He said, “We will rather call on the President to act like the father of the nation and take decisive action, instead of looking for excuses that are not there.
“Nigerians will recall that the All Progressives Congress and the President came into power by politicising the killings in the North-East zone of the country in 2014 and 2015.

“Instead of joining the country then to look for ways of looking for solutions to the killings, the APC and the President feasted on it.
“As you can see, no one has spoken or politicised the killings in Zamfara. But because the President did the same before, he feared that opposition parties would do the same.
“We are all appealing to the President to sit up, rejig his security architecture and find lasting solutions to the myriad of problems facing the country and the citizens.
“If the President is finding the job too difficult to do, he should call for help or quit. We are tired of burying our children, wives and brothers. Our women should stop being made widows at young age.”
