Buhari ought to be ashamed of himself as Nigeria’s president – Adebanjo

Elder statesman and a Chieftain of Yoruba socio-political organization, Afenifere, Ayo Adebanjo, has slammed President Muhammadu Buhari for his refusal to do something in the ongoing killing of harmless Nigerians by suspected Fulani herdsmen.

He stated the President ought to be ashamed of himself for being the number one citizen of the acclaimed giant of Africa.

talking with New Telegraph, the Yoruba chief expressed doubts at the possibility of maintaining the 2019 general elections under the nation’s present shape.

He said, “The Fulani herdsmen are inflicting confusion in some parts of the country; Southern Kaduna, Benue, Adamawa, and many others. What has he done? Is it not a disgrace that the president of a country who was a military man back then is in a scenario in which there's a breakdown of regulation and order in some parts of the country? Buhari should be ashamed of himself as president of this country. He should be ashamed of himself.”

requested if Buhari should seek reelection regardless of his alleged underperformance, Adebanjo said, “If he restructures the country, he should go and seek for re-election and people will determine. I don’t believe in 2019 elections if there's no restructuring.

“i am of the view that election must not be held till the country is restructured. If not, there could be no peace. I understand he's going to do it by using force but God is in the control.”
