Buhari’s Visit To Taraba, Benue, An Afterthought, Says Fayose by reportnaija(m): 6:06pm On Mar 05, 2018

Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has described President Muhammadu Buhari’s visit to Taraba and planned visit to Benue, Zamfara, Yobe and Rivers states as an afterthought.
According to him, the President is more concerned about his reelection in 2019 and his visit to those states is to seek votes and not to sympathise with the people on their loses.
Fayose, in a statement issued on Monday by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, said it was the height of cruelty that the same President, who promised to lead from the front in the fight against Boko Haram, could not visit Dapchi, Yobe State where 110 school girls were abducted by the insurgents but went on merrymaking in Kano.
“On January 9 and 12, this year, 88 victims of herdsmen attacks were given mass burial in Taraba State. Also on January 11, 2018, another 73 persons killed by suspected Fulani herdsmen in Benue State were buried in a mass grave in Makurdi, the state capital.
“Meaning that in Taraba and Benue States alone, 161 Nigerians were given mass burial within three days! This never caught the attention of our President. Rather, it was a visit to Nasarawa, a neighboring State to Benue that was important to him.
“To further demonstrate his lack of compassion for Nigerians, while the entire nation, especially parents of the 110 abducted school girls in Dapchi, Yobe State are still in anguish, President Buhari went to Kano last Saturday to attend a social function, thus sparking negative reactions from Nigerians.
“Apparently, it was the negative reactions of Nigerians, especially on Social Media and the effects on the President’s reelection bid that necessitated his hurried visit to Taraba State today, and planned visits to Benue, Zamfara, Yobe and Rivers States.
“I am sure the people of Taraba State won’t be hoodwinked by the President’s cosmetic sympathy, show of concern and crocodile tears, which he never bordered to shed when hundreds of indigenes of the State were being killed by suspected herdsmen,” the governor said.”

Of cause we know.

The pressure paid off.

If you don't hold these wicked people's feet to the fire, they will continue to take the people for granted.

We asked him to sympathise and he did.

Good! A president should listen to his citizens.

Though earlier visit and taking positive actions would have re-assure citizens that the leaders care about them!

Once bitten, twice shy! shame on this government for the re-kidnapping of girls!

May those involved in this atrocities irrespective of the party, tribe, class, religion never know peace!

May the Almighty make them experience x100 what those parents are going through right now. Amen.

Father make it impossible for those wicked people to smell power again.

Make every citizens life count again. Help bring back the smiles to the faces of Nigerians again.

Vote Buhari out come 2019. peace!

This is the first time I am agreeing with Fayose on any issue.

The President's tardiness in dealing with the Benue and Taraba issues was rather irresponsible, unbefitting and unbecoming.

Haba, these are your people. It would cost him nothing to call for a 10 minutes national broadcast to condemn and address the killings, at least, those grieving people will be assured that they belong to a country.

Those advising the President are getting it wrong, this was the same way GEJ behaved and cost him his 2nd term.

I am still surprised he is yet to personally confirm on national TV this Dapchi girl's abduction.

I like the President but the truth must be said.
