Nigerians illegally entering Europe are on their own: PDP attacks Buhari over statement

The People’s Democratic Party(PDP) has faulted president Muhammadu Buhari for a statement attributed to him, that Nigerians caught up in their attempt to illegally enter Europe, are on their own.

The president was said to have told Angela Merkel,  the Chancellor of Germany this, while they met at the State House on Friday.

In a statement signed by Kola Ologbondiyan, it’s National publicity secretary, the party said the statement shows that the President is not bothered by reports that over 10,000 Nigerians died in the Sahara desert while trying to leave Nigeria.

The opposition party also accused the president of failing woefully as it said, it was wrong for Mr President to say that those Nigerians left, to find ‘greener pastures’, but hasn’t done anything to solve the problems.
