A second
republic lawmaker, Dr. Junaid Mohammed, has noted that President Muhammdau
Buhari has been busy favouring the Yorubas of the Southwest.
He said the
President has not done even a single road in the north, recalling that this was
exactly how former President Goodluck Jonathan abandoned the South-south during
his 6 years in office.
He said this
while assessing Buhari’s two years in office as Nigeria’s President.
He said the
president failed woefully in shoring up the economy while wasting more time in
criticising the Jonathan administration.
He scored
Buhari 60 in the fight against insurgents and 50 in war against corruption in
the country, while complaining that a lot of money had been stolen under the
guise of fighting terrorism and rehabilitation of the victims of the war.
Mohammed
asked President Buhari to name one road or project he had completed in the
north since coming into power.
“Today, it
is the South-West that is enjoying the Buhari administration in terms of key
appointments and development projects like roads.
“He has
short-changed the north.
“He has not
done even a single road so far in the north.
“Buhari’s
idea of project implementation is skewed in favour of the South West.
“This is the
same thing that Jonathan did for other parts of the country excluding the South
South where he comes from.
“I believe
that he has done reasonably well but he had a lot of work to do if he must meet
the basic needs and expectations of Nigerians.
“Nigeria
needs a strong leader who practises what he says. Buhari is generally sick and
this limitation has really hindered his performance.
“He has
disconnected from his party leadership, the APC, and he has problems with the
legislature and the judiciary.
“We really
have no basis to celebrate May 29 since it was set up by the military.
“We have
acted and behaved more as despotic nation and have not met the basic tenets of
democracy and for me, there is nothing to celebrate”, he said.
