One time Jigawa State Governor, Sule Lamido, has advised President Muhammadu Buhari to resign, describing him as a failure.
Lamido asked Buhari to beg for forgiveness of those who voted for him that he has disappointed.
In an interview with the BCC Hausa Service on Thursday, Lamido said the killing of innocent farmers in Zabarmari village in Jere local government area of Borno State by Boko Haram insurgents, as well as the general insecurity in the country has shown that Buhari is a failure and that “something is wrong somewhere.”
He said further:
“He has failed totally. If not that he has failed, how will you allow some people to slaughter 43 people? How will you allow bandits to raid villages and set them on fire and rape their women? Definitely, something is wrong somewhere.
“Allah is merciful to his servants; we hope our prayers will be answered, but Buhari has to go first. He should ask himself what offenses he has committed.
“He needs to wake up at midnight, drop his arrogance and pray. He should ask for Allah’s forgiveness for the offenses he has committed.
“He is arrogant and always speaking with pride. Many people have said it and we have seen it. Four years ago, if you had said something like this, you would have been abused but now the truth has come,” Lamido concluded.
Recall that on Wednesday, a group under the aegis of Northern Elders Forum lambasted the President and accused him of lack of empathy for dying Nigerians.
