A sharp division has appeared among members of a pro-Buhari group, National Support Groups for Good Governance(NASUGG), over the rally the group or­ganised in Abuja last Tues­day.

The group claims to be an amalgamation of different support groups with about 70 million members nation­wide.

But some of its members have described as insensi­tive the rally ostensibly held to support the anti-corrup­tion campaign of the gov­ernment.
It was seen by some dis­senting members of the group as a ploy to shore up the image of the Buhari ad­ministration, especially at a time the government is being bashed from all cor­ners on the handling of the economy and what some say is dictatorial tendency.

A leader of one of the dissenting groups told The AUTHORITY on Sunday that it was inappropriate to organise a rally for the sup­port of the government at this this particular time.

“The era of use and dump is over. They made promis­es to us before the election, but after the victory, we have been forgotten. Now they need us to back them now that there is crisis ev­erywhere.

“The economy is in a very bad shape, is this what we promised the people during the electioneering period? There is hunger every­where. Some of us are not in support of the rally.


“Let the government solve the problems on ground and stop mobilizing people to organize solidar­ity rally.

“They have attacked judg­es, because the reactions are not what they wanted, they want us to mobilise people to rally support for the government. It is better for every NGO on its own to analyse events in the coun­try and react appropriately,” he said.

At a press briefing preced­ing the rally, the National Coordinator of NASUGG, Dr. Chidia Maduekwe, de­nied any division within the group, saying the group comprises like-minds that have come together to sup­port the fight against cor­ruption.

He had said the group was neutral and in support of government’s war against corruption and urged the government to go ahead and prosecute any of the judges found guilty of cor­rupt enrichment.

At the rally on Tuesday, spokesperson of NASUGG, Comrade Abdulwaheed Ekakhide, had said the groups will take the anti-corruption campaign all corners of the country.

“Let’s take the fight against corruption to all Ni­gerians because it is a fight for all Nigerians and not for the legislature, the executive or the judiciary alone.

“It is a fight for all of us even the president should not be above the law. The senate president, the speak­er of the House of Repre­sentatives, the Chief Justice Etc are under the law”, he stated.

EazyMoh:
Useless people, no find work and keep roaming Abuja hoping to get paid by government. What kind of support rally is held in the middle of a tenure?

Ahmeduana:
THEY ARE PREPARING GROUND FOR ELECTION RIGGING, 70MILLION MY FOOT.

orunto27:
This Rally is 666 and therefore CORRUPT. It can come when Recession is over and Naira:Dollar is 150:1. Otherwise, the Rally becomes an Abomination similar in Content and Intent to the one million March for Late Abacha.

“Let the government solve the problems on ground and stop mobilizing people to organize solidarity rally.
