PDP tells Buhari to stop demarketing Nigeria



The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Sunday, took a swipe at President Muhammadu Buhari, over what it described as the harmful consequences of his alleged negative statements on the economy and the general image of the country.

The PDP in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh said the President’s unwary statements have become very serious clog in the wheel of progress, eroding the confidence of both domestic and international investors in the Nigerian economic and social system.

The party said: “It is worrisome that in the last six months, the President, instead of making efforts to harness resources and grow the economy, has rather continued to apply himself, perhaps unwittingly, to demarketing the nation and scaring away investors through negative labelling of Nigerians and unwarranted unhealthy portrayal of the nation’s economy.”

“In the last six months, our President has only succeeded in discouraging foreign investors with his continued misrepresentation of our country as a business unfriendly environment, where most of the citizens are basically corrupt, dishonest, and cannot be trusted.
