PDP Govs flay Garba Shehu over comment on communiqué

The governors elected on the platform of the Peoples Democratic on Monday berated Garba Shehu, the spokesman for the President, Muhammadu Buhari, over his comment on their communiqué.

The governors had on March 23, in Abia State, chronicled the dire living conditions of Nigerians in the Buhari regime.

Garba Shehu, according to the governors, in a statement by the Director-General of PDP Governors’ Forum, Hon. CID Maduabum, had described the communiqué as a fantasy, delusional and fictional.

The governors noted that Shehu was dazed by the sheer assemblage of facts, figures and evidence on the existential threat Nigeria was facing as a result of the APC misrule.

They stated, “The most disturbing aspect of misrule of the APC as chronicled in the communiqué is the petroleum sector. The stealing of Nigeria’s crude oil and the connivance of NNPC in shortchanging other tiers of government, namely, states and local governments are simply mind-boggling, if not outright criminal.

“Nigeria now produces 1.1 million barrels of crude oil per day. It has the capacity to produce 2.5 million per day. It cannot even meet its OPEC quota of 1.8 million per day.

“Nobody can call them to order to desist from the part of lawlessness and unconstitutional acts it has chosen to dwell in.

“Of course, President Buhari is the Minister of Petroleum Resources. Under his watch, Nigeria’s oil and gas sector is deteriorating. In an accountable government, he should have resigned his position as Minister of Petroleum, as a result of the cataclysmic failures in the sector.”
