The National Caretaker Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party has alleged that a cabal is now ruling Nigeria.
It believes the health challenge of President Muhammadu Buhari has shown that some individuals have taken over the running of the government from the ailing President.
The reaction of the committee followed the inability of Buhari to attend the weekly Federal Executive Council meeting for the third consecutive week.
Though there is nothing unusual in the President being sick, the former ruling party submitted that what was bad was the refusal of the President to disclose the true state of his health.
The PDP argued that the health of the President must be bad to have prevented him from attending the weekly Federal Executive Council meeting consecutively for three weeks.
Spokesperson for the Senator Ahmed Makarfi-led caretaker committee, Dayo Adeyeye, stated this in an interview with one of our correspondents on Wednesday.
Adeyeye, a former Minister of State for Works, said the health of the President and the attitude of his handlers had shown that the country “is now on auto pilot.”
He said, “We sympathise with the President on his health and we pray that God will lay His hands on him.
“However, it is now certain that the country in now being ruled by a cabal. Members of the cabal are not known.
“Who is in charge of the country now? We don’t know. Nigeria is now on auto pilot. We don’t know who is rocking the country and who exactly is churning out orders or exercising the executive powers of the President anymore.
“This can’t happen in saner climes. We have a President who has not been seen in public for some days and the government is not worried.”
Efforts to get presidential spokesman, Garba Shehu, on the telephone on Wednesday did not yield any result.
He did not respond to an email and text message sent to him as of the time of filing this report.
Buhari not being fed through tube
–Mohammed
Meanwhile, the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, on Wednesday, said Buhari’s continued absence from the weekly FEC meetings could not be described as a strange development.
Mohammed said this while answering questions from State House correspondents who sought to know why Buhari was again absent from the council’s meeting on Wednesday having missed two previous ones.
He said the development was not strange because the President was only following the advice of his doctors that he should take things easy.
The minister stated, “All he (the President) is doing is he is following his doctor’s advice.
“Mr. President himself told the nation he has never been this sick and he is going to take it easy. He said it from day one when he came back from the UK.
“So, whatever is happening today is not any strange development; it is exactly what he said he has been advised to take it easy by his doctors and that he will soon also go back for further treatment.
“So, I don’t think it is anything that is out of place from what he said. He has been quite transparent and upfront in the matter concerning his health.”
Mohammed also faulted a media report that claimed that Buhari was being fed through tube, describing the report as “absolute bunkum.”
He added, “It is absolutely untrue that he is being fed. He was in the office yesterday (Tuesday) as you all reported.
“You are aware that the President was at his office yesterday (Tuesday), and he worked at his office yesterday. A few days before now, we came out to say he has been asked to take some rest by his doctors, and he chose today to rest and not to attend the Federal Executive Council meeting.
“We want to seize this opportunity to thank Nigerians who have expressed a lot of concern and sympathy, and who have been praying for him. Like we have always said, Mr. President will stick to his doctor’s advice so that he can recover much more quickly.”
The minister also said the present administration would mark its second anniversary because it has a lot of stories to tell.
The north led by fulani elites will never let Osinbajo take over and the yourubas will not fight for him and the people of the old eastern Nigeria (biafrs) will siddon and be looking as if you say you see us life

ReplyDeleteA dying Buhari is million times better than your former gorilla, and recent ogogoro presidents PDP has produced.
ReplyDeleteLeave Buhari alone. Those cabal are not accumulating public wealth like PDP cabals.
Manifestation Miracle Review One of the most neglected muscles in the upper body but a very important one nonetheless is the rear delts. When we work on our shoulders the last thing we even consider is doing rear deltoid exercises. Although it is a small muscle it is one that should be given equal focus as the rest of the shoulder area.
ReplyDeletegoogle sniper 3.0 If you want to build muscular arms - just like the guys on the Jersey Shore - then here is a training plan inspired by the juice heads at the Jersey Shore. I was talking with a buddy of mine and he laid out how most of the guys who hang out on the Jersey get their arms pumped up every summer. Here is the plan: Step #1: Train biceps, triceps and chest 6 days a week.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous 7.13 AM, nobody in PDP was/is a gorilla but since you equated Buhari to a gorilla then he must be one. In this case, don't you think it's only gorillas that can identify one another?
