NORTHERN ELDERS FORUM: STILL GENERAL WITHOUT TROOPS – PRESIDENCY

The Northern Elders Forum (NEF) in a statement Sunday signed by its so-called Convener, Prof. Ango Abdullahi, alleged that the insecurity in some northern states of the country was an indication that President Muhammadu Buhari and the governors of those states have lost control over the protection of the people which is a constitutional duty.

We are not surprised by this latest statement by Prof. Abdullahi, and our past position on what his group represents remains unchanged: a mere irritant and featherweight.

The former vice chancellor signed the statement under the banner of Northern Elders Forum (NEF).Hearing that title, you would think the body was a conglomeration of true elders. But the truth is that NEF is just Ango Abdullahi, and Ango Abdullahi is NEF. It is a quasi-organization that boasts of no credible membership, and its leader is akin to a General without troops.

Before the 2019 presidential election, the one-man army called NEF had shown its antipathy against President Buhari, and its preference for another candidate. They all got beaten together.
NEF is merely waving a flag that is at half-mast. President Buhari steadily and steadfastly focuses on the task of retooling Nigeria, and discerning Nigerians know the true state of the nation. They don’t need a paper tiger to tell them anything.

As usual attack the messenger and not the message

It shows that Buhari does not have any solution at hand!!! He keeps living in denial!

I don't understand, is the presidency saying that people are not being killed in Nigeria especially in the North

Should the elders fold their arms

What about Sokoto Where bandit carries gun in broad daylight and elect themselves as judges

Rather than address the question of insecurity, the so called presidency is busy mud slinging. This is how you know when someone or some group lack substance. The govt lost the plot a long time ago and cant protect it´s citizens. That is fact, regardless from whom this indictment comes from.

Just look at the juvenile twaddle that is the response of the Presidency's official spokesman. A once respected journalist speaking like an area thug. What a shame. Why would it matter the "weight" of a President's critic?
