INSECURITY: If Pres. Buhari Is Incapable, He Should Simply Resign; Nigerians Did Not Vote Garba Shehu, Femi Adesina.... Dino Melaye

"It is not proper for the President to always speak to the people through statements issued by his media aides, Femi Adesina and Garba Shehu".... Melaye.

Nigeria's President, General Muhammadu Buhari (Rted.) has been called out to address Nigerians directly over the growing insecurity in the country.

This was the position of a former chieftain of the All Progressive Congress, APC, Senator Dino Melaye, who represented Kogi West Senatorial District in the 8th Assembly.

According to Senator Melaye, "it is not proper for the President to always speak to the people through statements issued by his media aides, Femi Adesina and Garba Shehu".

Senator Melaye made the submission during a monitored interview programme with Africa Independent Television (AIT).

According to the former Senator, t"growing insecurity in the country is worrisome but the President is absent and unavailable".

He added that "the security challenges been experienced in the country can be traced back to the failure of the current leadership in the country and if President Buhari is incapable of taking action, he should simply resign".

The former lawmaker also lashed out at the current National Assembly leadership, lamenting that "they have made themselves tools in the hands of the executive and unable to fulfil their constitutional roles".

He said: “President Buhari needs to speak to Nigerians directly, he needs to communicate with the media. Our President is absent, and this has negative concomitant effects on the war against insecurity in the country".

“It is very pathetic but our President is not available. All we hear is presidency says; we didn’t vote for Garba Shehu or Femi Adesina".

“All our security challenges boils down to leadership failure. This man has shown more than enough evidence that he has no capacity to run this country.
President Buhari should, in the interest of children yet unborn, in the interest of Nigerians that are dying, excuse us. It is simple, he should resign".

“It is expected they will speak like that, because both chambers of the national assembly, the leadership of the national assembly is a creation of the villa, as we speak now, National Assembly is a department of the villa".

“It is evident in the National Assembly’s decision not to impeach Buhari despite the array of insecurity and gross display of incompetence by this government".
