“How can anyone say they’re proud of the report of President Buhari, even the individuals very near him would let you know that they wished he might have finished a lot better and he might have finished a lot better and he hasn’t.

“So, what we have to do now’s to get able to elect another President who would go in the wrong way, a President who has a imaginative and prescient and a transparent concept of what governance entails relatively than simply being a President. So, I’m disenchanted and that’s the reason at this time, I’m actively concerned in attempting to see {that a} new chief emerges in getting Nigerians a brand new lease of life.”

In its response, the South-South group mentioned, “Is Mr. Baba-Ahmed simply getting to grasp the horrible incorrect the Buhari presidency has finished to this nation?

“These similar parts have now change into their albatross, kidnapping and killing harmless residents at will.”
