Some natives of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) have condemned a statement credited to President Muhammadu Buhari describing them as ‘necessary evil', Igbere TV reports.


The natives, under the auspices of Abuja Original Inhabitants Youth Empowerment Organisation (AOIYEO), in a statement to the president obtained by Igbere TV, Commandant Isaac David, described the statement as hate speech.


Media reports had quoted the president as telling Senator Philip Aduda, who was part of an FCT delegation who paid him Sallah homage at the Presidential Villa on Tuesday, that, “I have all the results of all constituencies. I am not threatening FCT because to make FCT secure is to make myself secure and the vice-president. I think they know that they are necessary evil that was why they decided to vote for PDP.”


David said the people took exception to the statement, adding that though the president said he was for nobody, “we believe he is for us as our governor and should direct our affairs with that unbiased mindset.”


He said the president lost the election in FCT due to several factors including complacency by the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the territory.


He recalled that the natives also queried the fact that in 2015, President Buhari promised to the indigenes at the Palace of the Ona of Abaji to appoint one of their own as minister of the FCT, but did not, adding that left no one to monitor the elections on his behalf.


“The president travelled to Katsina State to vote, the Vice President travelled to Lagos State to vote and the FCT Minister travelled to Adamawa State to vote leaving the indigenes who constitutionally they represent as governor, deputy governor and acting governor in limbo and therefore amenable to influence by extraneous forces beyond their control.


“This is the more reason why the president should appoint the Minister of the FCT from the indigenes, somebody who speaks their language and knows them as is the case with the executive governors in the 36 states,” he said.

Buhari is Nigeria's worst president ever.

Instead of fostering unity, this man continues to divide the country along ethnic, religious and political lines

any body that doesn't support APC is tag enemy of the state,
APC led Federal Govt has really divided this country.

As a resident of Abuja I will say the president is unnecessary and evil.

How do you call your subjects "necessary evils" ? The civilized nations of the world would be marvelled at the new heights of non-chalance and disdain a president can openly show to his people.

This is the same man that was practically addressing Nigerians almost every week sounding all democratic before the elections. Anyways "next level things".

Good they didn't take in his comments.
Better they countered Buhari

They should have told him to his face. Simple

Imagine a supposed president of a country making this kind of shithole "hate speech. Buhari is a fatal error

So because pdp won fct? For God sake when would all this blaming stop?

They should just ignore the intolerant egomaniac.

Very wicked and heartless.

FCT natives? Mtcheeew!!!!

I thought it's FCT Native Doctors.

Buhari's the first incumbent to lose FCT.

Lols! Necessary evils, that statement is grandfather of hate speech

I'm just tired of this country, if only what people are saying matters to him.

The man no send anybody, him no dey even see anybody. Typical cow wey dey waka for road, only and mostly controlled by its rearer using whip (boogharia's own whip na him Fulani brothers.

Is it not better he's being avoided

I'm really tired!

If DAAR Communications was shut down for hate speeches Buhari should be more dignifying enough to call it quit as a president for calling citizens who didn't vote for him "NECESSARY EVIL" because this is also hate speech.

This buhari na offside walahi,

Fact you lost election in all majorities except almajiri kano


And Lagos that was rigged tells u the fact that your policies are roasting


People in cities

It was a Sallah visit banter that is now being 'politically' overstretched. unnecessary!

Rather he put a dead-beat former head of Hajj commission as FCT Minister whose only achievement was painting lines on the roads and legalizing cattle rearing on the streets

Shikini:
Buhari is Nigeria's worst president ever.

Instead of fostering unity, this man continues to divide the country along ethnic, religious and political lines

keep lying to yourself. It was buhari that started the division or your hatred for the man

Abuja Residents should be careful.

Buhari is a vengeful fellow.

Though I won't be surprised if it happens.

A man who believed he never lost any election and that every Nigerian should vote him.

An unapologetic coupist.

if u aren't sharing same country with this illiterate president u go dey alright

The end of this senseless president will only mark a new beginning for Nigeria

Buhari is a criminal and an old bastard burukutu sipping gorilla
his supporters are vermins and vultures

kiss the truth

I build websites and I am based in Abuja, see my signature

Please tell him


I build websites and I am based in Abuja, see my signature

President wey no sabi talk for public dat one na president?

KINGwax007:
keep lying to yourself. It was buhari that started the division or your hatred for the man

If you are disputing this then it means sense is far from u

Anytime Buhari talk without a written address, he normally bring out his bigoted and hatred mind.

Even the President utterance shows division!
