You Are Turning Nigeria Into Police State, PDP Tells Buhari by chidima2019: 7:09am On Dec 31, 2018
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has raised the alarm that President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration is turning Nigeria into a police state, where those opposed to his re-election bid are treated like enemies of the state.

The main opposition party has also condemned the continued siege on the residence of Senator Dino Melaye in Abuja, describing it as unwarranted and provocative.


Melaye had last week raised the alarm that the police planned to arrest and inject him with a poisonous substance.

The party noted that the siege showed that the police under President Buhari has become an instrument of oppression to subjugate dissenting voices ahead of the 2019 general elections.

The National Publicity Secretary of the party, Mr. Kola Ologbondiyan, stated that the Buhari Presidency is turning Nigeria into a police state, where those opposed to his re-election are treated like enemies of the state.

He said, “The only sin committed by its Presidential Campaign Director of Civil Societies, Senator Melaye, is his return to the PDP and his forthright stand against the misrule of the Buhari administration, which are all well within his rights as a citizen.”

“Since Melaye, left the APC, the Buhari administration has continued to hound and harass him, as well as the members of his family with trumped up charges, all aimed to silence and put him out of circulation ahead of the 2019 general election.

“The PDP has become extremely worried about the safety of Melaye and his family members under police lockdown and charges Nigerians to hold President Buhari and the All Progressives Congress (APC) responsible should any harm befall him or any member of his family.”

He expressed the hope that opposition figures like Melaye would not suddenly become victims of ‘accidental discharge’, unexplained assassinations or mysterious motor accidents.

I wish he hears, haven’t you listened to many of his interviews abroad where they ask him of security he respond with corruption, they ask him of infrastructure he talks about security.

That man won’t hear anything talk from now till eternity he won’t listen except you give him a hard knock that’s the real spirit of a cow

FELLOW NIGERIANS, I think it's time to do away with this school of old politicians that have brought this country to it's knees. Atiku or Buhari, they are both the same.
Now, I have met a couple of Nigerians who feels OMOYELE SOWERE has what it takes to retire them and steer Nigeria towards a different direction, away from total collapse.
But they always end their conversation with "he no go win". and some will go as far to say that He lacks the political clout or structure to win a presidential election.
Truth is 'structure no dey vote', "clout no dey vote", NA PEOPLE DEY VOTE.
DO YOUR PART, VOTE YOUR TRUE CONSCIENCE, THERE MIGHT JUST BE OVER 10MILLION NIGERIANS WHO SEES THINGS THE SAME WAY AS YOU.
LET'S BE UNITED IN THIS.
