President Buhari has revealed why his government can’t order security forces to clampdown on bandits terrorizing the peaceful coexistence of Nigeria.

Recall that President Muhammadu Buhari says security forces have not moved against bandits in the country because of the fear of “heavy casualties of innocent villagers and hostages” that may be suffered in such operations.

Of late, there has been outrage over the body language of the President to bandits in the country. Some sections of the country had also perceived Buhari as allegedly pampering bandits and criminal herdsmen terrorising parts of the country.

But in a statement on Friday, presidential spokesman, Garba Shehu, quoted Buhari as saying, “We have the capacity to deploy massive force against the bandits in the villages where they operate, but our limitation is the fear of heavy casualties of innocent villagers and hostages who might be used as human shields by the bandits.”

Buhari, who also described the latest abduction of hundreds of students of Government Girls Secondary School, Jangebe in Zamfara State, as inhumane and totally unacceptable, said no group was too strong to be defeated by the government.

According to Shehu, the President noted that his “primary objective is to get the hostages safe, alive and unharmed.”

“A hostage crisis is a complex situation that requires maximum patience in order to protect the victims from physical harm or even brutal death at the hands of their captors.

At least Buhari, if you don't fear any human being, fear Allah. You mean you can't deploy your Fula security against your Fula bandits but you can deploy helicopter gunship and fighter planes to Orlu in Imo State Southeast Nigeria in order to fish out non-terrorist ESN operatives? And the location is a heavily populated civilian area! History will not absolve you.

You're a wicked, evil and the most corrupt and hypocritical leader to ever lead Nigeria.

Shame on you and on your government.

But you can order them to arrest your critics....



What is his functions as a president if he can't use the resources (security agencies) to fight crimes in the country...



I am sure, this is because the perpetrators are his kinsmen.....

But you can quickly move against ESN and Sunday Igboho, who are protecting their people after you failed in your duty to protect the masses.

Yeye dey smell.

There is what they call war casuality now.
Oga flush out this people before they become more powerful through this cash out fund government keep giving them.

NA Presidency dey talk or Buhari?........I want to really know.

This is Shehu's comment through and through , Buhari is neither aware or concerned about the kidnapped students , this country till 2023 is on auto pilot mode , that's the next level dream !!

Them Don exchange Buhari for presidency

Buhari your matter don tire me, make we kukuma scatter this yeye country

But you can go after the harmless civilians, northerners and irrationality

Ooh really dis shows our president cares about lives o .. abi eri olorun bii .. security operatives can be sent to lekki against harmless protesters but can't be sent after bandits wey get AK no wahala na . Bo shey reh wa bani beh .. one day we all shall leave this world and we all shall account for all we did on earth .. ati shi olori yannn

If u witnessed Buharis regime during 1983 or 85 or so ND u still voted him in 2015 ND 2019 ba, ur judgment day will surely cum
Then if u voted him in in 2015 ND did same thing in 2019 coz u felt that ur zone will be given d next presidency, then u no pass that judgement
If u did both the first ND last ND u still ain't sorry up till now ND apologized to both urself ND the nation at large ba, be calm Las Las e go surely hit u

U can deploy soldiers and police to disperse peaceful protesters abii? U can deploy soldiers to flush out ESN vigilantes protecting their region from herdsmen abi

Enjoy your 4+4 change Nigerians

Question

Correct Answer

Which Buhari?

Why is it that Buhari will never come out and talk for himself?

At this point, even if a foreign country declares war on Nigeria, your President Buhari will still not be seen.

All we keep hearing is “Buhari says” and “Presidency”

All you commenters up there should ask yourselves when last you saw Buhari speak to reporters.

The fact that you all just believe Buhari said so and so because a newspaper prints it is alarming.

Because you are INCOMPETENT simple

But you ordered military onslaught against IPOB in Oyigbo and ESN in Orlu and didnt worry about casualties. Criminal Buhari.

THIS GOVERNMENT IS MAD AND FAKE.

Correction, it was not the president that spoke, it was an aid called Garba Shehu. The president is incapacitated or dead, he is not capable of speaking. Therefore, dont take the statement serious.
