Femi Adesina, Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd), has said his principal acted with restraint typical of a father during the #EndSARS protest that rocked the country last month.


The President’s spokesman said had his boss not exercised the tolerance of a father, “we would have been talking of something else in the country”.

He, however, said Buhari would not allow rampaging hoodlums to burn down the country.

Adesina, in a piece on Friday titled, ‘We Have Not Many Fathers’, said the government accepted the five-point demands of the #EndSARS protesters but “the protest was prolonged, and eventually hijacked and misdirected” because the youths didn’t see what the elders saw.


In the piece published on his website, www.femiadesina.com, the spokesman lamented that people the President respected “instigated the protesters to carry on” but “promptly went underground when anarchy ensued”.

Adesina wrote, “All through the EndSARS protest and the riots, mayhem and looting that followed, President Buhari acted like a father. And though we have millions of instructors in this country, we have not many fathers. President Buhari is one.

“The President is by no means a soft man. We remember the man of iron and steel that ruled with iron fist between January 1984 and August 1985, with his kindred spirit, Babatunde Idiagbon. They attempted to knock sense into our heads as Nigerians, but were eventually toppled by people who had less patience for discipline.




“Is President Buhari as hard as he was in 1984? Yes and no. In personal traits and attributes, he remains the unbending iron. But in terms of administration and response to people and situations, he is tempered by democracy, and by time. What he could do by military fiat then, he must pass through democratic due process now.

“If President Buhari hadn’t exercised the restraint and tolerance of a father, at a time that even hitherto respected people instigated the protesters to carry on (and they promptly went underground when anarchy ensued), we would have been talking of something else in the country. The rivers of Nigeria could have turned crimson, and mourning and lamentations would have suffused the land. But we are thankful for the father in President Buhari, patient and enduring, almost to a fault.”

They know they are mad dogs

Make I no talk wetin dey my mind

Too bad.. God please protect your children always.

Perfect write up. PMB didn't play into their hands. When they failed in all ramifications, they came up with Lekki massacre, over 25 days, they are yet to come up with their family members who were being massacred at lekki.

Femi Adesina sounding like a broken record as usual, a man Sanwo-Olu had to show pictures to grasped what he was saying.
A man not aware of his own existence.
May God show Nigeria mercy!

I no fit shout

Tunde Idiagbon had to be out of the country for man for a man of iron and steel to be surfed aside where he was killing a ram. He could not even use the knife.

May be , may be not

how much are they paying you...?

Restrained indeed.

"....When it comes to rule of law, sensitive Nigerians will agree that the Buhari's government has no iota of respect for the law.No respect for court injunctions.

There is brazen disobedience for due process, stifling of press freedom,arrest of oppositions on trump up charges and abuse of human rights through the use of coercive apparatus of the state.Millions of Nigerians are living in fear because of state intimidation. We have return to the days of military junta....."

This is not new for a man that said ".....he remains a “dyed-in-the-wool Buharist” irrespective of what others see as “foibles and failings of the administration”

So no amount of whitewashing or sugar-coating by Femi Adeshina will ever make a tyrannt like his principal who is a confirmed bigot & anti-democratic element become a demigod overnight deserving of worship by sane Nigerians.

this man is a spoilt brat, who acted like a fada? does he no what he is saying?

So a father should wait till shove becomes a fight before he speak out

No problem .. You are saying there were no deaths right? If truly people were killed and you just decide to be heartless, what happened to those that died that night will also happen to you and your generation . you will remember today

A father that sent soldiers to kill innocent youths? What a father. Thunder fire that father

They find people who can be compromised, irrespective of tribe or religion. What do you say about young men/women who should know better?
