The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has advised President Muhammadu Buhari to “stop living in denial, self-praise and making jokes” out of the deteriorated security situation in the country under his administration.
The party described Mr Buhari’s recent comments on security as an attempt to award himself an unearned pass mark despite obvious failure to tackle acts of terrorism and violence, which have continued to worsen under his watch.
