President Muhammadu Buhari is fully in charge and in control of the
government of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and anyone who is in doubt
of this is in grave error.
The Buhari Media Organisation (BMO) made this assertion in its response to
Sokoto State Governor Aminu Tambuwal’s comment that President Buhari is
not in charge of government and he is ruling the country by proxy.
In a statement signed by its Chairman Niyi Akinsiju and Secretary Cassidy
Madueke, the group stated that from Tambuwal’s utterances, it is obvious
that his frustrations after his unsuccessful outing as a Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential aspirant is beginning to manifest.
Describing Tambuwal as a failed Governor and an expired politician, the
group says that due to his lack of confidence in himself, he depended
solely on the support of the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike for his
failed presidential bid and having failed to realise his ambition,
Tambuwal has now become a stooge of the PDP Presidential candidate Alhaji
Atiku Abubakar, for whom he is ready to descend into any low.
“We wish to note that Governor Tambuwal has not only failed to serve the
people of Sokoto State diligently in the past three and half years but
has, in his utterances, displayed crass ignorance on sensitive national
issues.”
The Buhari group says it finds it objectionable that Tambuwal has sunk so
low as to describe President Buhari as ‘’ruling by proxy,’’ when in actual
fact he knows it as a fact that President Buhari is fully in charge of the
country’s affairs, as can be seen in the numerous achievements his
administration has recorded.
“Perhaps the clearest evidence of Hon. Tambuwal’s failure as a politician
and governor is that he has turned himself into an errand boy of his
fellow contestant Atiku Abubakar and the opposition Peoples Democratic
Party.
“We therefore advise the Sokoto State Governor to stop deluding himself
about his party defeating President Buhari in the 2019 presidential
election as Nigerians have already taken note of President Muhammadu
Buhari’s commitment towards solving the myriad of problems confronting the
country, and they are poised to re-elect him as president in 2019.”
