“If anyone is in doubt that the PDP shouldn’t be taken seriously on any issue in the country, here lies a stark reminder.
“To this end, we cannot join issues with the PDP, but rather focus on ongoing efforts to ensure the quick and safe release of the abducted school children and other citizens,”he said.
He added that efforts to ensure the release of the students were being coordinated by service chiefs, saying that Buhari had already deployed national security assets to Niger to achieve this.
Akpanudoedehe urged parents, loved ones and other stakeholders not to be distracted by PDP’s statement on the development.
He added that all hands were on deck to ensure the quick and safe release of the students.
“Government’s resolve and the capacity of our security services to end these cowardly attacks on soft targets, particularly schools is not in doubt.
“We urge the continued support of all Nigerians to ensure this,” Akpanudoedehe said.
The Niger government has ordered the closure of all boarding schools in the state after the incident.
