PDP heading for ‘death’ if it ‘wishes something worse than #EndSARS’ for Nigeria – Presidency

According to the Presidency, the largest opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is solely interested in destabilizing the nation in order to reclaim power.

Femi Adesina, the presidential spokesman, announced this in an Abuja statement on Tuesday.

He made the accusations in response to a recent PDP statement addressing the State Security Service’s (SSS) warning that certain people were plotting to foment chaos in the nation by using the energy issue as a pretext.

If the energy problem is not handled promptly, the opposition party fears that it may spark a mass movement worse than the 2020 #EndSARS rally against police abuse.

Mr Adesina, on the other hand, advised the PDP that instead of plotting and encouraging “agitation worse than October 2020 EndSARS,” as it (the PDP) may well be thinking, the PDP should fight for national peace and cohesion, if it ever understands such a notion.

Instead of inciting chaos, social instability, and disorderliness in society, he counseled the opposition to continually advocate the qualities of social cohesiveness and peaceful coexistence.

“The term “EndSARS” conjured up images of death, mayhem, vast destruction, and even cannibalism. PDP now desires for Nigeria’s demise.

“A PDP presidential candidate has warned that the party would perish by 2023 unless it wins the country’s top office.” And perish it would, since the party wants nothing worse for the nation than EndSARS.”
The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has made it clear that it is primarily interested in destabilizing the nation in the hopes of regaining power in the future.

“Our party fears that the situation is getting to a boiling point and can trigger a nationwide agitation that might be worse than the October 2020 EndSARS if not addressed immediately,” the PDP said in a statement issued less than 24 hours after the Department of State Services (DSS) raised alarm about sinister plots by some elements to cause disorder in the country using the energy crisis as a smokescreen.

Which patriotic political party or group ever threatens chaos, social turmoil, and disorderliness in their nation, unless it is still stinging from having its nose ripped from the honeypot, like the PDP did in 2015?

However, we would like to remind the now dormant opposition party that Nigerians booted it out seven years ago, and those same Nigerians have not forgotten the hardships they faced at a time when the country was awash in cash: no power, no infrastructure, insurgents ran riot across the country, and our collective patrimony was looted blind. Those same Nigerians are not ready for another PDP misrule, either now or in the foreseeable future.

Rather than plotting and encouraging “agitation worse than October 2020 EndSARS,” as it may well be imagining, the PDP should fight for national peace and cohesiveness, if it ever comprehends such a notion.

Murder, mayhem, widespread devastation, and even cannibalism were all associated with EndSARS. PDP now desires for Nigeria’s demise.
