Former Minister of National Planning in the President Goodluck
Jonathan’s administration, Professor Abubakar Suleiman, has asked
President Buhari to prepare for the day he would give account to his
maker for his ‘selective and vindictive style of governance’.
Suleiman
said this at his formal declaration for the post of the National
Publicity Secretary (NPS) under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in
Abuja yesterday November 7th.
The former Minister said the president must be prepared to explain
himself to God for the death of hundreds of Muslims, Internally
Displaced Persons (IDPs) and members of the Independent Peoples of
Biafra (IPOB) since he assumed office in 2015.
“Today, Nigeria is at a crossroad. Less than three years after the
exit of our great party (PDP) from the government, our country bleeds
profusely from corruption, inept leadership, civil strives and economic
hardship. The state of insecurity is quite alarming. The number of
casualties arising from the menace of kidnapping, terrorism, herdsmen
genocide and other forms of state sponsored terrorism is very
disturbing. Poverty is now more evident in most families and homes
across the country by the Buhari government is the corruption of
mind. When a leader’s mind is corrupt nothing good can come out of it.
As a spiritual being, there is no gain saying that we will be judged
someday by our creator and so I urge president Mohammed Buhari to
prepare to face Allah on his style of governance that has emboldened
selective justice by shielding the Babachirs, the Barus, the Jaffars,
the Kyaris and many other corrupt cases of his beloved appointees in the
last two years. Our president should also be ready to account for the
blood of 400 innocent Shiite Muslims massacred in Zaria that of the lDP
refugees, the massacre of IPOB members and other state sponsored
attacks. Mr President must be prepared to account for the deep hatred he
has shown towards certain ethnic groups, which is evident in the
lopsided appointments and recruitments carried out by his administration
against such ethnic groups in the country. I want to say with all sense
of responsibility that these actions are neither Islamic nor do they
portray the virtue of a good Islamic leader. It is abundantly clear that
hypocrisy and double standards are the hallmarks of this administration
and the game of the day. It is against this backdrop therefore, that
the PDP as a matter of exigencies needs to rise up to the call, to
salvage the country through vibrant opposition party and the needed
advocacy.” he said
