There is a way to talk and address issues when you are in public office. But it appears many in Nigeria‘s political space are ignorant of this. From rig and roast, to write your will, to body bags and now to lose your life. Who are those advising our political leaders?
President Muhammadu Buhari, while speaking at an emergency caucus meeting of the All Progressives Congress in Abuja on Monday morning, warned that anyone who foments trouble, especially by carrying ballot boxes, would be doing so at the “expense of his life”.
Buhari made the statement after reprimanding the Independent National Electoral Commission for postponing the general elections from February 16 to 23.
The president repeated that he gave INEC all necessary support to ensure a smooth exercise, but the electoral body still displayed “incompetence” and failed to let Nigerians go to the poll as originally scheduled.
Buhari also threatened consequences against INEC chairman Mahmood Yakubu, agreeing with the submission of Adams Oshiomhole that the electoral chief had compromised and was in purported collusion with the opposition PDP.
The national caucus meeting, which was initially televised for about 30 minutes, was cut off live broadcast after the president’s remarks. Journalists were also asked to leave the venue to allow for a closed-door session.
