Buhari Will Not Resign, Presidency Nigeria Replies PDP

The presidency has reacted to the calls made by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for President Muhammadu Buhari to resign.

In a statement issued on Friday, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, said his principal will not heed to calls made by the PDP.

“President Buhari will not resign. He is determined to continue the crusade against corruption, both legacy and recently unearthed cases, that are found to be shabbily handled, and in some cases unattended to by past administrations,” the statement partly read.

Shehu said this in a statement titled “PDP gripped by undemoractic pandemic” which he made available to journalists on Friday.

The presidential aide was reacting to a statement attributed to the national chairman of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, Uche Secondus, calling for Buhari’s resignation.

He accused the PDP of promoting what he called undemocratic values at a time the world is united in fighting a common enemy.
