The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Prince Uche Secondus, has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to resign following the President’s own admission that his administration has failed to secure the nation.

In a statement on Saturday, signed by his media adviser, Ike Abonyi, the party chairman said as Commander-In-Chief, the buck stops at the President’s table, adding that he should accept his failure and stop giving excuses.

Secondus said rather than the President’s belated lamentations after 67 months in power that he has been unable to perform, he should do the honourable thing by resigning and giving way for fresh ideas and new vitality.

The party chair recalled similar call to former President Goodluck Jonathan in 2013, asking Jonathan to vacate and give way to competent hands to govern the country.

“And this ‘competent hand’ happened to be President Buhari whose five years in office has left the country comatose in all ramifications.

“I find it extremely unacceptable that after the President disregarded all wise counsel to rejig the nation’s security architecture for effectiveness, he is now turning round to admit their failure and blame operatives whom he kept even in their apparent inefficiency,” Secondus said.

He noted the honesty of the President in admitting the obvious failure of his government to secure the nation, but he also said he should do the needful by giving way to a competent person to come in.
