The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has told Nigerians to blame the President Muhammadu Buhari-led All Progressives Congress, APC, federal government for the recent suicide deaths and suicide attempts in the country.

In a statement on its official twitter handle, @OfficialPDP, the party said, “Nigerians should hold APC Nigeria and Muhammadu Buhari government responsible for the rampant suicide and suicide attempts.

“The failure of APC Nigeria led government to provide basic amenities and revive our ailing economy has forced Nigerians to commit suicide. “APC Nigeria professionally corrupt and visionless government is reason for suicide and many killings in Nigeria”
