The Peoples Democratic Party,
PDP, has reacted to President Muhammadu Buhari’s claim that the late Head of
State, Gen Sani Abacha constructed roads from Abuja to Port Harcourt.
Buhari had on Tuesday stated that
contrary to the opinion of Nigerians, he agreed to work with Abacha, stressing
that during the period roads were constructed, even as education and health
were “touched”.
Reacting, PDP’s spokesperson,
Kola Ologbondiyan said such comment shows that the president “knows little
about this country.”
In a tweet on his official
Twitter handle, Ologbondiyan wrote: “If the President @MBuhari actually said
that himself and Abacha built road from Abuja to Port Harcourt then it is
unfortunate.
“It simply shows that he knows
very little about this country.”
Buhari had spoken yesterday while
receiving members of the Buhari Support Organisations (BSO) led by the
Comptroller-General of Customs, Col. Hameed Ali, at the Presidential Villa,
Abuja.
“I don’t care the opinion you
have about Abacha but I agreed to work with him and we constructed roads from
Abuja to Port Harcourt, Benin to Onitsha and so on. We also touched education
and health institutions,” he had said.
