The PDP demands urgent action from Tinubu to rescue 163 worshippers kidnapped in Kaduna. The party expresses deep concern over the abduction, which occurred during a Sunday service in Kajuru Local Government Area. The statement emphasizes the need for immediate rescue operations and a comprehensive approach to prevent further attacks. The party's national publicity secretary, Comrade Ini Ememobong, highlights the government's failure to protect citizens' right to freedom of worship, stating, 'Nigerians must not live in fear when going to churches or mosques.' The PDP calls on the APC-led federal government to prioritize the safety of citizens and avoid past mistakes, such as the Niger school kidnapping, where media optics took precedence over victim protection. Ememobong criticizes the government's focus on international image management, suggesting that addressing insecurity requires more than propaganda. The statement concludes by emphasizing the constitutional responsibility of the government to protect citizens and the need for the Tinubu administration to demonstrate its commitment to Nigerian lives through swift and decisive action.
