Under Buhari, Nigeria Has Become More Unsafe – NEF

The Northern Elders Forum (NEF) has called for the resignation of President Muhammadu Buhari over the security challenges in the country.

NEF’s spokesman, Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, who stated this on Wednesday while appearing on Channels Television’s Politics Today, argued that President Buhari has failed as the Commander-in-Chief and should therefore resign.

“We are exercising our democratic right to say to a President that he has failed, he should resign. There is nothing wrong with that. Buhari was elected to perform the job, he hasn’t performed the job. We are asking him to resign.”

“Are we winning this war or we are losing it? The truth is that we are losing this war because of an enemy that they described as anything else other than the equivalent of our military. They cannot be as good as our military,” Baba-Ahmed said.

Continuing, he said that living in Nigeria has become more dangerous under the Buhari-led Federal Government.

“Under President Muhammadu Buhari, Nigeria has become increasingly more and more dangerous for Nigerians to live in.

“The military is also involved in the northeast. They are fighting bandits, they are fighting bandits. They are doing everything, both what they are supposed to do and what the police should do,” he added.
