Former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode has stated that President Muhammadu Buhari should show Nigerians that he’s not Jubril of Sudan but the President and advised that he resign.
This happened following the President’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina’s defence of why the president has not addressed the nation.
He stated that if the President is too sick them he should resign and let someone else take over the reins of affairs.
He also disclosed that Nigerians deserve better quality of leadership especially in this time of global epidemic in the form of Coronavirus.
He wrote, “We need to be reassured that our President has not been whisked out of the country and that he has not been afflicted with Covid 19 or any other debilitating & life-threatening illness. We also need to be reassured that he is indeed Muhammadu Buhari and not Jubril Al Sudani. To say that it is “his style” to ignore his people and treat them with contempt at a time of national crisis is disrespectful, disingenuous and downright insulting. The Nigerian people deserve a far better quality of leadership than that.”
“If he is too sick to continue he should resign & let someone else take over the reins of power but if he is well enough to continue he should get off his high horse, purge himself of his contempt for our people, come clean & behave like a responsible modern-day leader & not a feudal Arab Sheik or primitive tribal warlord. The Nigerian people &indeed the entire world are facing an existential threat & the greatest challenge in their entire history &this is not the time to play games or act as if all is well &that our house is not on fire.”
“We need a leader that can inspire, encourage & reassure us & that is strong, healthy, focused, purposeful, decisive, sensitive, compassionate, alive to his responsibilities & forward-thinking. We do NOT need a power-mad, tyrannical, vain & irresponsible megalomaniac & antediluvian relic who has lost touch with reality, who no longer knows who, what or where he is and who is suffering from senility, delusions of grandeur, an identity crisis and the misplaced notion that he is not accountable to God and to the people.”
Recall that the Chief of Staff to the President, Abba Kyari has tested positive to Coronavirus while the President tested negative to the virus.
