Presidency: Buhari’s critics behind disunity in Nigeria

The presidency has exonerated President Muhammadu Buhari from nepotism and cronyism, saying those blaming him for the disunity among Nigerians are in the wrong.

 

 

On Sunday, the fiery Catholic Bishop Matthew Kukah, lampooned Buhari over state of the nation.

 

 

Kukah said Buhari has reversed the gains made by his predecessors in ensuring Nigerians are united and living peacefully with their neighbours.

 

 

The vociferous cleric said Buhari has entrenched disunity and nepotism through his clannish and divisive disposition, noting that people of different ethnicity who hitherto lived in harmony are now enmeshed in conflict over differences that could have been otherwise resolved.

 

 

Kukah passed the verdict on president Buhari in his Easter message on Sunday.

 

 

He averred that Buhari’s preferential treatment for his cronies and kinsmen had engendered the ruination of the nation’s unity, leading to all out ethnic and religious crisis.

 

 

Kukah lamented that “years of friendships, cultural exchange, and collaboration built over time have now come under serious pressure from stereotyping.”

 

 

In a subtle response to Kukah, special assistant to Buhari on media and publicity, Femi Adesina said Buhari critics should be held responsible for the deep-seated division among Nigerians.

 

 

In a tweet on his official twitter page, Adesina said those who are guilty of spewing divisive remarks are the ones blaming Buhari for lack of harmony in the country.
