For asking Buhari to resign, Nigerians attack PDP

The National Bureau of Statistics released figures on Wednesday, August 31, confirming that Nigeria had slipped into recession.

Shortly after, the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) asked President Muhammadu Buhari to resign, saying he was incompetent.

“We join all well-meaning Nigerians to call on Mr. Buhari to resign if he is unable to reverse the disastrous economic decline he has brought on Nigerians,” the party said.

Some Nigerians described the statement as a stupid and reckless statement. Others wondered which faction of the PDP was calling for the resignation of the president, whether it’s the one led by Ahmed Makarfi or the Ali Modu Sheriff faction.

However, some Nigerians are not happy to hear that the economy has finally fallen into recession and are taking out their anger on Buhari.
