‘Buhari Govt Killing Nigerians’ – PDP Reacts To Kaduna Train Attack

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has blamed the Muhammadu Buhari-led government for the attack on the Kaduna-bound train by bandit terrorists.

Bandit terrorists had on Monday evening attacked a Kaduna bound train with explosives and gunfire, killing eight people, injuring many and abducting others.

In a statement on Wednesday signed by its spokesman, Debo Ologunagba, the PDP said the latest attack has confirmed its stand that the security architecture under President Buhari has collapsed.

The opposition party condemned the continuing insecurity and the senseless killing of Nigerians under the All Progressives Congress (APC) government.

The PDP stated that the complicity of silence by the Buhari administration on Saturday’s airport invasion emboldened the terrorists to attack the train on Monday.

The statement, “More alarming is the fact that this particular attack took place within two days of the deadly terrorists’ attack on the Kaduna International Airport on Saturday, March 26, 2022, in the same Kaduna State controlled by an APC government.

”The complicity of silence by the Buhari administration on Saturday’s airport attack emboldened the terrorists to assault the train, a development the PDP said validated its position that “the APC administration has conceded sovereignty over parts of our country to terrorists.

“The continued silence and obvious helplessness of the Buhari Presidency on these deadly attacks on our nation’s key transportation sectors raises apprehensions of possible complicity at the very top level of the APC administration.

“It is callous and unfortunate that the APC government, in its usual insensitive nature attempted to suppress information by keeping mute over 24 hours after this horrendous attack which claimed the lives of promising Nigerians, among whom was a young medical doctor, Dr. Chinelo Megafu who was fatally shot in the ill-fated train travel.

The party said that Nigeria cannot afford to lose its citizens because of the recklessness and arrogance in the failure of the APC government.

It added: “In 2021, over 10,366 Nigerians were killed by terrorists, with over 2,900 abductions in countless terrorism-related attacks in which no fewer than 964 security agents were killed, as revealed by SB Morgen (SBM) Intelligence Report published in the Guardian Newspaper of Thursday, January 3, 2022.

“Those killed in 2021 represents a scary 47% increase in the 7063 massacres by terrorists in 2020.

“More alarming is that the killing spree has continued in 2022 unabated. More than 536 Nigerians have been killed by terrorists since the beginning of this year. In the first three weeks of January 2022, about 486 Nigerians were killed by terrorists as reported in Premium Times of Sunday, January 23, 2022.

“Again, only last week, 50 innocent Nigerians were reportedly hacked to death by terrorists in the same Kaduna State!

“This is beside the hundreds of Nigerians, including students who were abducted by terrorists with many of them still languishing in their abductors’ den.

“How many more Nigerians can our nation afford to lose because of the recklessness and arrogance in failure of the APC? Nigeria bleeds, families are hurting, parents mourn and agonize, yet the APC government is on vacation.
