49 PDP Senators Declare Support For Buhari

The forty-nine Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) lawmakers in the senate have declared their support for President Muhammadu Buhari.

Speaking at a press conference at the national assembly complex in Abuja on Thursday, Godswill Akpabio, minority whip, joined 48 of his PDP colleagues to express their determination to support the president.

However, they lamented that PDP members were being targeted in the anti-corruption crusade of the federal government.

“The PDP senate caucus reiterates its support to President Muhammadu Buhari and his quest to bring about a greater Nigeria,” Akpabio said.

“The PDP senate caucus, despite its formidable strength, has resolved to offer only credible opposition that would lead to the building of a better Nigeria. The caucus will give him all the needed support support to ensure his success as president.”

“But the PDP senate caucus notes the crusade against corruption undertaken by the APC-led federal government and hereby declares her support to rid Nigeria of corruption.

The caucus is not happy with the current trend that seems to suggest that the war against corruption is selective and targeted at PDP stalwarts and states.

“The current war lacks transparency, fairness to all and appears to be aimed at political adversaries.
