Anarchy Looms In Nigeria, Constitution Now Suspended, Fayose Warns by engineerboat(m): 6:26am On Apr 25, 2018
The Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has raised the alarm that Nigeria was drifting towards a state of anarchy, calling on the international community to intervene and rescue the country from turning to a war zone, where mass killings is a usual occurrence.
Fayose, who was reacting to the killing of 18 worshippers and the two Catholic priests in Benue State allegedly by herdsmen, President Muhammadu Buhari’s withdrawal of $496 million from the Excess Crude Account without the approval of the National Assembly and the controversial arrest of Senator Dino Melaye, said it was obvious that “under this government of President Buhari, the constitution is on suspension”.

Fayose, who was reacting to the killing of 18 worshippers and the two Catholic priests in Benue State allegedly by herdsmen, President Muhammadu Buhari’s withdrawal of $496 million from the Excess Crude Account without the approval of the National Assembly and the controversial arrest of Senator Dino Melaye, said it was obvious that “under this government of President Buhari, the constitution is on suspension”

He said: “If half of the level aggressiveness being shown by the Police on the arrest of Senator Dino Melaye because of seeming concocted allegations is shown on the killings by herdsmen across the North Central States and other parts of the country, the rampaging killer herdsmen that are even killing policemen would have been brought under control.”

The Special Assistant to the Governor on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, said in a statement issued on Tuesday night: “”It is alarming and curious that Father Joseph Gor, one of the Catholic Priests that were murdered in Benue State today, raised alarm on January 3, 2018, through his Facebook account on the occupation of Mbalom community by herdsmen. Yet, the priest was killed!
“Why is the federal government allowing this seeming ethnic cleansing in Benue and other middle-belt States, such that President Buhari and the entire members of his government do not see the wanton killings as anything to be worried about?

“When did Nigeria degenerate to the level that people can no longer worship peacefully in their churches or go to their farms? When did Nigeria become a state of anomie where people are killed even after raising alarm that there was threat to their existence?”
On the alleged illegal withdrawal of $496 million from the Excess Crude Account, Governor Fayose said: “One day, this federal government will even stop releasing statutory allocations to States and Local councils. They are behaving as if the constitution of the country is already suspended and this should worry lovers of democracy in Nigeria.

He said it was alarming that “despite that Local Councils in Ekiti State were in court, challenging the federal government decision to withdraw $1 billion from the Excess Crude Account and the Attorney General of the Federation had already entered appearance in the suit number FHC/ABJ/CS/1264/17 that came up for hearing before Justice Binta Nyako on Monday, $496 million was taken from the Excess Crude Account.”

The governor, who described the President’s action on the illegal withdrawal from the ECA as an insult on the National Assembly and the Judiciary, added: “Only the National Assembly and the judiciary can save themselves from being turned to a non-existing institutions as already being done by the President.”

truly with what has been going in in the past few weeks, Nigeria is already in a state of anarchy, law enforcement officials are taking advantage of this situation to kill, loot, intimidate, steal and forcefully collect bribe from innocent citizens. no where in the world would a national army justify raiding and ransacking a village, just like the Nigerian army did in Benue, SARS are just picking people at random for extortion, utter disregard for the constitution by the executive arm and its agencies.

we are gradually slipping towards the "state of nature". this are the things past leaders saw and warned buhari not to recontest. not as if they didn't know about it before 2015, but hatred for gej removed all forms of reason.

Buhari would never go unpunished, whether dead or alive, his children might suffer from his wickedness and evil. angry

Fayose is scared and he is right to be.

Rigging Ekiti state election is a criminal offence.

I'll bet the federal government is waiting patiently to treat his own fvck up as his tenure ends this year.

One of this two must happen by June 2019;
1. Buhari disgracefully sent back to daura
or
2. BIAFRA

Benue indigenes/senators/law makers should go round the 36 states and seek alliance from its :#lazyyouths" to protest this government on the killings, so it does not seem they cry more than the bereaved..

Abandoning your homes is not a solution.

What do you expect when a JIHADIST is in power? believe it or not, Buhari is ruling Nigeria through SHARIA LAW! Buhari must be impeached!!
I see no reason why STELLA ODUAH, who was crucified alive for budgeting N100 million to buy two Bullet Proof BMWs without senate approval and relieved off her appointment and buhari allowed to remain in power after withdrawing over $400 million ECA funds without senate approval.

How can the president and other political stakeholders be busy discussing Apc convention and 2019 election when the country is heading towards anarchy? The north central is now a human abattoir, mindless killings have taken over Zamfara and Birnin gwari.
I ask you Buharists where is your conscience? where is the change?
If care is not taken there will be no one left to vote or be voted for by 2019.

Anarchy looms now, has he forgotten what he and jonathan did to fayemi, a serving Governor in a bid to win election, i saw how a Governor was manhandled and disgraced in a bid to win election by all means, no wonder he came top after election. But how time flies, it is same fellow screaming anarchy, when he sent thugs to a court to beat a judge, that was not anarchy, an arrest that is long overdue, you call anarchy, continue your wailing, if it is a common man that did this, he will be in cell cooling off by now. Stop playing politics with everything that happens.

Every other person may go scot free, but Melaye, I'm sure will feel the heat. That is definitely assured. I've never benefited a kobo from Tinubu but I will support him any day the way some of you support your CeeC.

Naaa! No Nigerian Dictator or President has ever been summoned by ICC.They do that to other African countries but not Nigeria. Seems you don't understand the role of Nigeria is Africa. It'd just like asking the ICC to arraign a US president..
