Group Asks Buhari to Sit Up and Stop The Blame Game

A Northern group, the Arewa Peace Coalition on Monday asked Buhari to focus on fixing Nigeria and improving the quality of lives of the millions of Nigerians

It urged the President to stop the current negative campaign against Jonathan and build on the successes made by the immediate past administration.

The Arewa Peace Coalition (APC) gave the advice in a statement issued by its coordinator, Abdulkadir Mohammed.
It said: “Nigerians didn’t vote Buhari to come and give excuses on why he cannot perform… they believed he was capable and particularly fit for the job of president.

“Since you won the 2015 election, we have been waking up almost every day to hear stories about how Jonathan did this and Jonathan did that. We have become tired and fed up.

“When will we begin to hear what Baba Buhari has done? When will we begin to hear of what our Baba has done to salvage Nigeria?
“Bashing Jonathan at every opportunity has not solved any of the problems you met as president. Nigerians have already voted Jonathan out. They are disappointed that years after Jonathan has left, there is no day that the Buhari presidency does not attempt to feast on Jonathan. Why then did we vote for you?”

The group said the Jonathan presidency recorded some successes and called on Buhari to consolidate on those successes.

It said: “Mr President, there were a few successes of the Jonathan presidency. Acknowledge those successes and use them to your advantage, And then work to correct and avoid the mistakes that dogged the Jonathan presidency. That is how successful nations work.

“Please leave Jonathan alone. Go around the country and ascertain things for yourself. Two years into your presidency, you are yet to visit more than 30 states in Nigeria.”
