I’m Not Sleeping On Duty, Buhari Replies Reverend Stephen Mamza by Polynews: 10:37pm On Apr 22, 2019
I published a Post earlier this morning '' https://www.nairaland.com/5146937/reverend-stephen-mamza-buhari-been '' about Reverend Stephen Mamza: Buhari Has Been Sleeping On Duty, President Buhari has finally reacted to it. See his reactions below!

According to Punch news, The Presidency disagreed on Monday that President Muhammadu Buhari was “sleeping on duty as the Commander-in-Chief”, a description the Catholic Bishop of Yola Diocese, Rt Rev Fr Stephen Mamza, gave of Buhari on Sunday.

The cleric had during an Easter homily he delivered in Yola, the Adamawa State capital, criticized the Buhari administration for allegedly failing to halt insecurity in the country, especially escalating kidnappings, banditry, and other violent crimes.


Speaking on the latest killings in Zamfara, Benue, Adamawa, Taraba, and Southern Kaduna, the bishop said, “We are really in a dilemma. We (Nigerians) are feeling that we don’t have protection. From all indications, there is nothing being done. There have been calls from all over the country. Look at what is happening in Zamfara State; look at what is happening in Benue periodically, in Nasarawa state and now in Adamawa (Southern Adamawa).

“If there is a government in place then the government should listen to the people and address the security challenges. We have mass burials from time to time and there is no sign the government cares about what is happening.”

But, the Presidency on Monday disagreed with the bishop, denying that Buhari had been sleeping on duty.

It accused Mamza of not “staying above politics” and also not making “a fair comment” about Buhari.

The Presidency went on to recount what Buhari had done to restore security since assumed duty in 2015, especially in the war against insurgency.

It argued that but for Buhari’s efforts, Yola and other towns in Adamawa and the rest of the North-East would still be under the control of Boko Haram.

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr Garba Shehu, who gave the Presidency’s position, stated, “There is so much that has changed in the past three to four years in and around Yola, and the Catholic Church in particular that a true assessment would show that, but for the change administration of President Buhari, things would have continued the way they were, or even get worse. These could not have happened if a Commander-in-Chief was asleep.

“Bishop Mamza was and is still a strong member of the Adamawa Peace Initiative, API, composed of religious and community leaders, which did the lovely work housing and feeding 400,000 displaced people from Northern Adamawa and the Borno States in 2015. The API also did the extraordinary work of easing tensions between Muslims and Christians during that period and ensured that both groups did not turn on one another based on suspicion.

“As widely reported by the local and international press, in the premises of St. Theresa’s Cathedral where Rev Mamza ministered, there were more than 1,500 IDPs, mostly women and children on whom the church administered food rations and issued bags of maize, cooking oil and seasoning. We are truly touched and very grateful for the work that the Bishop and the others had done in that difficult period.

“Now that Boko Haram has been degraded, the more than 400,000 displaced people absorbed by the Adamawa community have all gone back to Borno state and to those council areas in northern Adamawa.

I wonder what Garba knows about peace and security of the locals. They should give him a rifle and post him to Zamfara. His eyes will see his ears!

If Buhari responds quickly to insurgency as he does to critics, Nigeria would have been an earthly heaven.

1.8 million people voted to return Buhari in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa States, that Bishop is just one person and he's entitle to his bias opinion, the people have spoken loud and clear with their votes.

I know we still have security challenge, but compare to PDP era, we have seen a lot of improvements.

This man you call 419 is at the forefront making huge sacrifices to alleviate the sufferings in IDPs. He has first hand info and on the field experience of what's going on security-wise. Your own is to hide behind your keypad to spew dirt.

You also need to go through the rigors of becoming a priest

Then get ordained, live a celibacy life

Let's see if your dead soul will not empathize with people suffering undecided

Or what's the essence of going into something you have no flare for

Did anyone point a gun on Buhari's head to become the president
