Festus Keyamo, Senior Advocate of
Nigeria, SAN, has lashed out at former Presidents, Ibrahim Babangida and
Olusegun Obasanjo for advising President Muhammadu Buhari not to seek
reelection in 2019.
In a series of tweets via his
verified Twitter handle, the Senior lawyer described both Babangida and
Obasanjo as “expired leaders.”
Keyamo said expired leaders who
tried all they could to extend their stay in office until they were chased out,
should not advise Buhari.
He wrote: “Ironically, these
expired leaders, IBB & OBJ, used all the tricks in the books to illegally
extend their tenures in office until they were chased away by Nigerians, yet
they’re the ones now advising Buhari to give up his LEGAL RIGHT to seek
re-election. It’s hypocrisy at its best.
“The message we can take from d
letters of OBJ & IBB is d urgent need 4 govt to address problems plaguing
Nigeria. But d message we must reject with d messengers is their roadmap on d
way forward. They’re too morally deficient to provide any political compass for
this nation again.”
Obasanjo had advised Buhari
against seeking re-election in the upcoming 2019 election due to the failure of
the government.
Similarly, Babangida had last
week asked Nigerians to vote Buhari out of office, come 2019.
IBB, however, enjoined Nigerians
to co-operate with Buhari until his tenure ends.
Including the so called Buhari himself is more than expired
