A former governor of old Bendel State and a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Board of Trustees, Dr Samuel Ogbemudia, has replied those attacking President Muhammadu Buhari over his recent appointments.

The elder statesman explained that the president needed time to settle for the best people who can work for the country.

He added that Nigerians would not forgive him if he failed.

He also described as unnecessary, attempts by some Nigerians to assess the administration in just 100 days in office.

He said, “When they knew that the man said he met everything in bad shape and in such situation you need to clean up the system so as to start on a good note.”

The PDP chieftain made this remark when he met members of the committee he set up to oversee the yearly Award of the Best Journalist in Edo State, led by a former General Manager of the Edo State Broadcasting Service (EBS), Pastor (Mrs) Sidi Lawal-Igioh.

“Nigerians asked him (Buhari) to appoint people, who can work with him and he can only appoint people he knows. If he fails by appointing a United Nation they will say it was his fault, they ought to have known. But he is now picking people he has tremendous trust in their ability.

“So, those criticizing him should let him do his work. If at the end of four years he did not perform, then Nigerians have another opportunity to either say carry on or stop.

“All these criticisms, I do not buy them. And the people who are criticising him probably they have never held any government position, they don’t know what is happening there, that all that glitters is not gold.”

Commenting on 100 days in office, Dr Ogbemudia said “first and foremost, Buhari was elected for four years and in the programme of events which led to the elections, at no time was hundred days mentioned.

“That they are being done in the past was perhaps a persuasive authority but that does not mean that everybody should keep to it. A programme well thought out to bring Nigeria back to the line of development, the line of security and so on, planning alone takes more than a hundred days.

“So, I expect that when eventually he finished the home work he will come out with something big. When he was elected, Nigerians have very high expectation of his performance and in order not to disappoint Nigerians, he wants to take time to plan his programme so that when eventually he pushes it out they will welcome it.

“So, they can excuse him because the Buhari they knew earlier on is no longer the same Buhari because this is a democracy. He has the National Assembly and the judicial arm now. His powers then is being shared with these two arms now.

“He cannot join the bandwagon, as a matter of fact that is why he wants to change the evil ways things are done before so that Nigeria will be better” he stated.

Nobody is against Buhari doing his job, but let him do it in the right way... Competent people does not come only from the North.

Let them keep attacking. After all, talk is cheap. Let them continue bringing out the 'ORUBEBEism' in them.

The Wailers, how market??!!

Pdp should go and sleep joor watin concern them

This man is simply looking for attention from APC, and he won't get it
How can u see plain truth and hide it because u want an appoinment or whatsoever
Even Buhari confessed to it that he is dassapointed in his one sided appointments and promised to balanced it, and this cow is coming here to spew rubbish

Never knew PDP still got some people who reason like humans... Imagine those failures finding fault in every step PMB took.... Mtcheeeeew

True word!

Every member of the PDP cannot be expected to be unreasonably partisan at all times. It's pure idiocy to compare a 100 days administration to an administration of over 5 year. Also, if Buhari must succeed in his administration, he has to work with people he knows and trusts because if he fails, we will entertain absolutely no excuses. As for the national spread in appointments, that would be fulfilled somewhere along the line in line with federal character but anyone expecting a 50-50 balance in appointments must be a dreamer.

Ok sir

kkkp:
D igbos won't lyk dis o
