Deji Adeyanju, a former youth leader of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has posited that President Muhammadu Buhari is “not in charge of Nigeria”.
Adeyanju said Buhari has “conceded the country to bandits”, terrorists he insinuated are having a field day. He also slammed the President for ‘going tough’ on dissent and separatists.
“Buhari is not in charge of Nigeria. He has conceded the country to bandits BH. All he is good at is attacking peaceful protesters and those agitating for equality and justice. Nnamdi Kanu & Igboho are his headaches as terrorists are currently burning the country to the ground,” Adeyanju wrote on his known Twitter handle on Thursday.
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that the Federal Government has been accused of preferential treatment with respect to groups advocating separation from the country and bandits — especially in the North-west Zone. But Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, has refuted that notion.
“We noticed that of recent, there is this misinformation as regards the way the Federal Government, especially the military, is handling the issue of banditry and terrorism.
“There is this misconception that the Federal Government is softer on the terrorists in the North-east and the bandits from the North-west and the way they handle separatists and other criminals from the South-east and South-west.
“I want to say without any hesitation that this is a fallacy. It is a misrepresentation, misinformation and fake news all rolled into one,” Mohammed had said in a recent interview with NAN.
