COVID-19: Deji Adeyanju reveals shocking reason President Buhari is hiding
President Muhammadu Buhari is hiding because he is scared of contracting the ravaging coronavirus (COVID-19), Deji Adeyanju has said.
Onyxnews Nigeria reports that in a statement made available to newsmen, the Convener of pro-democracy group, Concerned Nigerians, Deji Adeyanju called on Buhari to resign if he was afraid of being the president of the country.
The controversial activist said the death of former Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari, should serve as an eye-opener to Buhari to take the fight against coronavirus very seriously, even as he asked where all the testing kits and equipment donated by Chinese billionaire, Jack ma are.
Deji’s words, “The President needs to show leadership. Every day we watch the American President, Donald Trump, addressing Americans and meeting with his cabinet on efforts being made to curtail the virus from spreading. This lackadaisical attitude of addressing Nigerians every two-week by President Muhammadu Buhari in such a time like this is totally unacceptable.
“The demise of the President’s Chief of Staff, Mr Abba Kyari, to COVID-19 should ordinarily be an eye-opener for the President to see that he must act decisively and timely in order to contain this deadly virus.
“I am also tempted to ask, where are all the testing kits and equipment donated by Chinese billionaire, Jack ma? Why is Kano complaining of not having enough testing kits? And why are we not investigating the alleged mysterious deaths and secret burials happening in Kano?”
“This is not the time to be hiding under the bed in Aso Rock.
“Thousands of citizens will die if the President doesn’t show leadership.”
Adeyanju, a former Director of New Media of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) also called on Buhari to immediately convene the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting either through teleconferencing or physically, stressing that there is currently a leadership vacuum in Nigeria.
The controversial activist stressed: “The president has not convened the Federal Executive Council meeting for weeks now. He should do that immediately either through Skype, teleconferencing or physically at the Villa to set our clear cut agendas to prevent more unavoidable deaths of Nigerians and spread of the virus,” he said.
“The President should not leave the country on autopilot without clear direction or leadership.
“Currently, there is a leadership vacuum in Nigeria and it’s so sad that it’s the governors who are now rising to the occasion.
“The 36 state governors just agreed for a nationwide lockdown of the country since the Commander-in-Chief has absconded from his duties and responsibilities.
“Under our laws, the governors cannot lock down the country but when the President is missing in action during a pandemic, then we must all commend the decisive actions of the governors no matter how unconstitutional the act may be.
“Conclusively, one must ask: where is our President and Vice President?”
