The Nigerian Presidency has reacted to Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe’s call for President Buhari’s resignation over the rising spate of insecurity in the country.
Abaribe made the call on Wednesday during a session in the Senate. The presidency, in a statement signed by Garba Shehu, had this to say;
“President Buhari, to resign on what basis?”
“Just because some characters think that President Buhari should resign, then they expect him to quit. That call does not represent the opinion of the country. This is the opinion of an armchair critic, known for making stray comments.”
“If a leader like President Buhari needs to resign, there are millions of other Nigerians who need to resign, including Senator Abaribe who unlocked the door to enable the escape of traitorous and treasonable suspects.”
“He signed the bond for the court to release Nnamdi Kanu on bail, from which moment the suspect disappeared into the thin air. Senator Abaribe has failed repeated deadlines to return Kanu to the court for trial, yet he has the effrontery with which to accuse someone of failing to the bidding of the law.”
“This is a man who should have replaced the suspects he failed to produce in the correctional facility.”
“Abaribe’s party raped the nation and left it collapsing in 2015 and President Buhari is fixing things up all the years he is in office.”
“President Buhari is working hard to keep Nigeria and Nigerians out of the harm terrorists have unleashed in the entire Sahel and Sub-Saharan Africa with the support of Nigerians and our foreign friends, he is going to finish off these terrorists. He alone can do it.”
This write-up is totally senseless and is based on bias, sectionalism, intimidation of power in hand. If you are blind, are you deaf too. What you wish someone today, tomorrow may be your turn.
Tell that story to your children and don’t play politics with the lives of innocent Nigerian been killed on daily basis. Indeed, Boko Haram has become more sophisticated than the military in the last five years. Failed Govt.
The person saying this may either be a fool or blind to notice that this government is lopsided in so many things. You want to incarcerate someone who did not pick up arm against you but you want to release terrorist in your prison. Go and arrest Abaribe for saying the truth.
Nonsense nation with foul presidency. You went for a man that should have been on his own only to come asking abaribe. Did abaribe join the army in chasing kanu out of the nation. Meet buratai and demand kanu
