Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) urges President Muhammadu Buhari to quickly
respond to issues contained in the Open Letter addressed to him by a
chieftain of his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), Timi Frank.
President Buhari’s response has become imperative given the weighty issue
of humongous corruption, intimidation of citizens, erosion of freedom,
constitutional breaches and persecution of citizens under the guise of
fight against corruption, for which Nigerians and the international
community demand immediate explanations.
The PDP commends Timi Frank’s action as patriotic, bold, courageous and in
the interest of the nation. We therefore urge other democrats and
public-spirited persons in the APC to speak out for our nation and take
the bold step of withdrawing from the APC and rallying with other
well-meaning Nigerians in the repositioned PDP.
We implore them to come and join hands with other democrats, who are daily
working on the modality to rescue the soul of our nation from the
stranglehold of the APC and the Buhari Presidency.
Finally, the PDP cautions the APC to stop the unwarranted attack against
Timi Frank and others who boldly state the truth, particularly as the
current tide of our nation requires the support of patriots, who will rise
above partisan sentiments.
