The main opposition party, Peoples Democratic Party has slammed President Muhammadu Buhari for violating COVID-19 protocols by not wearing nose cover in public gathering.

The opposition party also appealed to Nigerians not to take a cue from the action of President Buhari and to avoid following such example.

This was contained in a press statement titled, “PDP Expresses Dismay By Buhari’s Violation of COVID-19 Law…Charges Nigerians Not to Follow Such Examples,” released on Sunday by the National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Kola Ologbondiyan.

The PDP expressed dismay over the president’s reported violation of his own executive regulation on COVID-19, which provides for 6-months jail term for defaulters.

According to Ologbondiyan, “It is a huge national embarrassment and gross failure of leadership that President Buhari, who ought to lead by example, is being reported of publicly violating the COVID-19 regulation, which he signed just five days ago.

“Such disregard to law and rules, which have characterized the Buhari Presidency and the APC, is largely responsible for the failure of leadership under the Buhari-led APC administration in the last five years.”
