Secondus Asks Muslims to Pray 

The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party  (PDP) , Prince Uche Secondus has urged all Nigerians to use the period of Eid -el- Fitr  to reflect on the situations in the country and pray specially for the survival of democracy and for peaceful conduct of the 2019 general elections. Secondus said in a Sallah message to mark the end of the 30-day Ramadan fasting period by the  Muslim faithful, that the nation’s democracy more than ever before since 1999 is under heavy stress that need all hands to be on deck for its survival.

He said in a statement signed by his Media Aide,  Ike Abonyi that three years after the nation’s democracy was handed over to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) indicators are apparent that it is under such pressure that need prayers and commitment of Nigerians for its sustenance and survival.  The PDP boss asked  the APC-led federal government to imbibe the spirit of tolerance and shun all undemocratic tendencies as he expressed concern over several acts of intimidation, harassment and bullying of the opposition by operatives of federal government agencies noting that this is a very dangerous trend that must not be allowed as it has grave consequences on our democracy and the survival of our nation.
