Ezekwesili implores Buhari to ‘swiftly’ transfer power to her

Obiageli Ezekwesili, a former minister of education, called with President Major General Muhammadu Buhari (ret.) on Wednesday to “swiftly” transfer authority to her.

This was stated by Ezekwesili in a tweet that was posted under her @obyezeks Twitter handle.

She referred to Buhari in her tweet as a “ineffectual Commander-in-Chief of the Nigerian Armed Forces.”

Her tweet was in response to the President’s supporters’ indignation over his failure to protect the nation and its people.

The former minister continued by saying she appreciated the support of Buhari’s followers.

“Let’s ask the ineffectual Commander-in-Chief of the Nigeria Armed Forces @MBuhari to swiftly hand over power to me so I can satisfy his supporters cry on his ignoble failure to secure the country, citizens and residents of Nigeria. I welcome their vote of confidence in me. “I welcome their vote of confidence in me,” she tweeted.

She added in another tweet, “Once I analytically surmised that demanding action on any governance issue from @MBuhari was equivalent to expecting the impossible, I stopped. We have a so-called Commander-in-Chief of Armed Forces, who sorely degenerated the state of our country’s security. Ignoble legacy.”
