Sen. Gaya Cautions Nigerians Against Disrespecting Buhari, Others
The Senator representing Kano South Senatorial District Kabiru Gaya, has cautioned Nigerians against insulting president Buhari and other Nigerian leaders.
Gaya revealed this while he was addressing newsmen shortly after meeting with Vice President Yemi Osinbajo at the State House on Tuesday.
He asked Osinbajo to disregard the allegation of nepotism levied against him by Dr Junaid Mohammed.
It could be recalled that the second republic lawmaker had alleged that vice president was only appointing people from his ethnic group as well as his church members.
Gaya in his reaction urged the second republic lawmaker to check fact before making accusations.
He said “First of all, this is interesting; you see in a country like Nigeria, we need to respect our elders; people like President Muhammadu Buhari, you cannot say anything wrong about him or abuse him because he is the president.
“Like, the vice president, there is no point in raising all these issues; I think there is need for before Junaid speaks, he should be able to check the records of who are the staff of the Office of the Vice President.
“I think I remember vividly; we have a member of the House of Representatives, Hafiz Ibrahim, from Tarauni constituency of Kano State who is from the Office of the Vice President.
“I think the vice president should disregard this issue and continue working as vice president; I believe we should not be distracted; we should work as a team.”
