President Muhammadu Buhari refused to address members of the National Assembly and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has given reasons for this.

According to the opposition party, Buhari has nothing to tell Nigerians.

Punch reports that PDP national publicity secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, made this allegation known on Thursday, December 10.

“Mr President is afraid of the obvious, he knows he has nothing to tell Nigerians on the security situation in the country. That is why he is running from the National Assembly. He also failed in every area of governance including security."

Meanwhile, Nigerians have reacted to the latest development, with many people supporting the PDP's view.

Bright Samuel wrote:

"Please let the president resign for good. I think that will be a great honor to him if he does that. Since he can not address his own people in public, let him go and rest. He has tried, at least for making food and petrol more expensive."

Hassan Bappah added:

"The root of this problem is PDP so they should stop blaming Buhari."
