      February 11, 2020 Auno Killings: Where is Mr. President? - Asks PDP...Says Buhari Presidency Has Abandoned Nigerians The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) says the inaction of the Buhari administration on the spiraled wave of killings, banditry and kidnapping, particularly the Sunday carnage in Auno, Borno state, by insurgents, has left the nation with no other option than to hold that the Buhari Presidency has abandoned Nigerians. The party described as alarming that all the Buhari Presidency can offer in the face of the killings of our citizens are condolence statements with no decisive and significant action to track down the perpetrators and end insurgency in the country. The PDP said it is disheartening that instead of settling down at home and attending to the worsened insecurity under his watch, Mr. President and his officials are busy globetrotting.

The chief untruth is that the police released the video to stop the family from prosecuting the girl for murder. Sir Barr.
