In view of the heightening insecurity across the country, River State governor, Nyesom Wike lashed out at APC, and the Buhari-led administration on Thursday, describing them as unsympathetic.
The governor, soliciting support for Nigeria from “true nationalists” accused the ruling party of losing the capability to ease the tension and resolve the security challenges.
Addressing his guest from the south-south zonal working committee of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Port Harcourt, Wike asked the ruling party to own up to their faults and admit failure.
“APC governors have come out to say the present APC federal government will solve the security problems. But every day, people are dying. When will they solve the problems?
“Own up and say to Nigerians, we have failed on the promises that we made to you. And honourably say, as it is done in other advanced countries, that since we cannot perform and carry out the covenant we have with Nigerians, we have decided to quit.
“Nationalists and all reasonable Nigerians, who believe in the country should ensure that this country moves forward, otherwise everybody will be badly affected.
“Every reasonable Nigerian, every nationalist who believes in this country should come up and make sure this country moves forward. If not, it is going to affect everybody,” he said.
The governor also urged Nigeria to brace up and fight for good governance in 2023 with their permanent voters’ cards (PVC).
