Stop alleged profligacy, PDP urges president

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to lead by example by ending the alleged profligacy that “pervades his presidency in order to give validity to his directives to ministers and other functionaries.”

The party equally charged the Nigerian leader to explain the “basis and source of presidential support for the office of the First Lady, including the appointment of aides contrary to his promise not to run that office.”

In a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, the PDP stated that “Mr. President remains responsible and answerable for his presidential assurances, and Nigerians expect an explanation on the violation of such sensitive undertaking.”
