Success Nwogu, AbujaThe Peoples Democratic Party on Monday attacked President Muhammadu Buhari for allegedly hauling insults on respected leaders and elder statesmen, including former President Olusegun Obasanjo, for cautioning against his alleged desperation for self-succession. The PDP National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan in a statement stated that in approving his media aide, Mallam Shehu Garba, to allegedly cast aspersions and insult on Obasanjo, Buhari was setting a very bad example to younger Nigerians. He alleged that such response fouled national values and heritage of Nigerians esteeming their elders and leaders. According to him, such a seed could also haunt Buhari in the future. He said, “Buhari may have seen how Nigerians have been registering their disappointment on his resort to personal attacks on former President Obasanjo, instead of responding to the germane issues raised by the former President.
