•By Admin
ABUJA – THE Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has strongly condemned the attack on the Government Girls Comprehensive Senior Secondary School (GGCSS), Maga, in Danko Wasagu Local Government Area of Kebbi State, where bandits killed the Vice Principal, Hassan Yakubu Makuku, and abducted 25 students.
PDP, in a statement by its newly elected National Publicity Secretary, Comrade Ini Ememobong, said that the tragic incident further highlighted the alarming rise in insecurity that has become the lived reality of majority of Nigerians under the President Ahmed Bola Tinubu-led All Progressives Congress (APC) administration.
“This tragic incident further highlights the alarming rise in insecurity that has become the lived reality of majority of Nigerians under the Tinubu-led APC administration- which has consistently preferred the politicization of governance over the protection of citizens.
“When a government fails in its primary duty of safeguarding lives and property, it must accept responsibility and deal decisively with the issues, rather than act aloof or attempt to deflect from the core issues, as this administration has repeatedly done,” PDP said.
The party, has, however commiserated with the parents of the abducted students, the family of the slain Vice Principal, as well as the staff, students, and management of the affected school, and the government of Kebbi State.
“Apart from this highly dusturbing Maga School incident, other abductions have taken place in Nasarawa, Plateau, Kano and Katsina in recent times and this is clearly not the hope (renewed and ‘unrenewed’) promised Nigerians,” PDP said.
The party called on President Tinubu to devote urgent and sufficient attention to securing the lives and property of Nigerians so that “this tragic cycle can finally come to an end. Or do we want a foreign country to threaten the government on this? Let the killings stop!”
