A member of Nassarawa State House
of Assembly, Kassim Mohammed Kassim, has accused former Presidents, Olusegun
Obasanjo, ex-military Head of State, Ibrahim Babangida and ex-military Head of
State Abdulsalami Abubakar, of “conspiracy against good governance” of
President Muhammadu Buhari.
Kassim, who made the claim under
the aegis of The Democratic Youth Congress, Kassim accused the three former
leaders of being uncomfortable with Buhari’s stance on corruption.
He alleged that the former
leaders, handed over to Nigerians corruption, nepotism, underdevelopment and values
laced with mutual distrust and suspicion.
Speaking with Punch on Monday in
Lafia, the state capital, Kassim also alleged that the former leaders have
began, “a search for President Muhammadu Buhari’s successor.”
Kassim, who represents Akwanga
South in the state House of Assembly said at no time did the President confide
in any of the former leaders about his future political plans.
He stated that the former leaders
lacked the moral standing to chart a political course for a country they
“ignominiously mismanaged.”
Kassim said such a move was not
only “an act of betrayal,” but “arson against the collective wishes of the
Nigerian people.”
He maintained that the so-called
search smirks of “hypocrisy and intent to cause political disharmony in the
polity.”
Kassim said, “What have Obasanjo,
Babangida and Abdulsalam Abubakar bequeathed to this country as leaders, if not
corruption, nepotism, underdevelopment and values laced with mutual distrust
and suspicion which has further compounded our journey to prosperity as a
nation.
“Enough is enough. We Nigerian
youths have allowed such leaders to mortgage the future of this country.
“We, Nigerian youths, would
henceforth use any civil and political will to resist such attempt by past
leaders to determine the common destiny of this great nation.”
The lawmaker pledged the group’s
“unflinching support to the emergence and continuation in office of President
Muhammad Buhari beyond 2019.”
GOD will judge everybody for his /her act or Ommision
