People's Democratic Party PDP has condemn in strong terms, the conspicuous absence of President Buhari and Vice President Osinbajo at the burial of former President, Alhaji Shehu Shagari, on Saturday, December 29, 2018.
The party said the absence of Buhari at the funeral, particularly regarding Alhaji Shehu Shagari’s status, as the first Executive President of our country, is unpardonable and a very wrong precedence in our national protocol.
Other News: New year message: President Buhari reiterates his promises of free and fair elections.
The action of President Buhari and his Vice has also sent a very wrong signal to members of the international community on how we honour our national values and respect for our patriots.
According to the party while the former President Shagari was at the National Hospital Abuja, passing through his last moments, President Buhari was busy campaigning in Uyo, Akwa-Ibom State, boasting of how he sacked the 2nd Republic, arrested and locked up Shagari and others.
Such disdain for our respected national figure by Buhari is completely unpresidential and unpardonable. Once again, we console the family of the former President, the government and people of Sokoto state and indeed all Nigerians for his demise. May his soul Rest In Peace.
