Those accusing President Buhari of handling bandits and terrorists with a softer hand than the way secessionists are being treated have full of hatred, Femi Adesina has said.
Adesina, who is President Muhammadu Buhari’s media aide, made the statement while defending his principal in a piece titled ‘See How They’re Being Sent To God To Answer For Their Crimes’.
“It amazes, even confounds, to hear some people say President Muhammadu Buhari should go after Boko Haram terrorists and bandits with the same gusto he has displayed against separatists in the country,” he said.

“Amazing and confounding because what the Buhari government does daily in the north-east, north-west, and north-central parts of the country, where terrorists and bandits abound, is send them to God to answer for their crimes.
“Why then do some people claim that certain troublers of the country are being treated with softer hands, than some others? This could be due to deliberate ignorance, mischief, or pure hatred.”
The President’s spokesman stated that it was not new as his position had been confirmed by the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Faruk Yahaya, on the day he was decorated with his new rank.
He reminded critics of the President’s directives to the nation’s security forces to crush all violent criminals and those sponsoring insurrection in the country.
