So Pdp are using the killings to undermine the efforts of this government just to get sympathy votes in 2023.

Did I get you right?

RZArecta:
The APC has done a pretty good job of destroying itself without any help from the PDP, let’s focus on the topic here though. Presidency says the northern youths for hear am (Shia and IPOB style) if not for democracy

RZArecta:
The Presidency on Tuesday knocked some Northern youths for their recent statement on the security challenges being faced in the country, saying that they would have met harsh retribution from a dictatorial government.

The Senior Special Assistant to the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, in a statement, asked the youths to thank their stars that the nation is operating a “truly democratic government” where free speech is guaranteed.

A coalition of Northern youth groups had on Monday asked the Federal Government to stop the massive killings and raiding of communities in the North by bandits and Boko Haram insurgents.


In separate statements, they decried the deplorable security situation in the North and demanded the immediate removal of the service chiefs.


On its part, the Coalition of Northern Groups had in its June 12 message said Nigeria, particularly the north, has had the worst set of incompetent leaders in the last five years.

But Shehu said it amounted to a grave mistake for the Northern youths to dissociate themselves from Democracy Day and, in effect de-cognizing democracy as a chosen system of government.


He said, “For a start, if the group dared to issue such a comment under non-democratic method, they would have met a swift and harsh retribution from a dictatorial government.

“They should thank their stars that we are operating a truly democratic government where the rights of free speech are guaranteed and protected.

“This government has done more than any other – elected or not elected – to curtail and beat back the terrorists.


“Similarly, no government has done more to foster democracy and freedom of speech in Nigeria than the current administration.


“The fact that CNG is freely able to transmit garbage to the media in the hope they will be widely reported is a testament to the freedom of expression and media liberty that exists in our country today.


“Equally, the fact that the government is issuing this statement, in response to the puerile message is a testament that today Nigeria is a country where disagreements can be aired publicly through the press, not through less gentlemanly methods used in the past.


“We hope that CNG will consider the facts and reconsider the unhelpful and inaccurate message their statements contain when issuing them in the future.

“We are facing severe hardships because of the coronavirus pandemic. And we continue to face the challenges posed by the terrorists Boko Haram.

“Yet when groups such as the Coalition of Northern Groups put out statements claiming that Democracy Day holds no purpose and the government somehow wishes for the northern states to be struggling, it is embarrassing not for the government but for the group, its members and their sponsors.”

let's assume that PDP are behind this to undermine the effort of the government.

What is the government doing to stop this?? The aids were busy insulting our elders for speaking out...

The presidency is threatening Arewa youths for staging a peaceful protest.

Threatening people who lost their love ones that you promised to protect.

Where are the billions of naira the government spending on the military?

Buhari has failed... He should resign and handover to his VP who I belive has the intellectual capacity to effectively pilot the affair of this country

Buhari is killing this party we invested money, sweat, trust and our lives on...

He should honorary design

let's assume that PDP are behind this to undermine the effort of the government

helinues:




How can the government win this kind of war when some elites are purposefully sponsoring all this attacks while some Northerners are dancing to the tune. Who are the people shielding the criminals? Are the Emirs still want to continue feigning ignorance?

Like I said, if this is northern elites/Northerners game plans to retain the power.. We can only wish you guys all the best.

SW are to civil to engage in such competition all in the name of presidency

Racoon:

Arrewa:

All we are asking is for security in 5 states in Northern Nigeria...

Borno, southern kaduna, Kastina,Jos and Sokoto villages

And don't you ever In your life insult our emirs again by tagging them ignorance cos I will insult all the Obas and in yoruba land...
