Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose has praised President Muhammadu Buhari for “publicly admitting errors in some policies carried out by his administration since assumption of office”.
He said the elections conducted in Kogi, Bayelsa and Rivers states in recent times have destroyed the “legacy of good elections” witnessed under former President Goodluck Jonathan.
In a statement yesterday by his Chief Press Secretary, Idowu Adelusi, Fayose advised Buhari to go beyond apologising to Nigerians but take concrete steps towards addressing the problems confronting the nation.
The governor also advised the President to stop globe trotting and stay more at home to address challenges facing Nigerians, saying “the country must be now given adequate supervision”.
According to him, the President should to stop seeing himself as a sectional leader or the president of the All Progressives Congress (APC), but as the leader of all groups and people.
The governor further advised Buhari to be wary of those he described as “some selfish persons in the APC who were bent on dropping his name to commit atrocities all in the name of politics.”
Fayose said: “This is a moment of truth. I commend the president for being bold enough to apologise for his lapses. He has admitted and accepted that criticism is part of democracy. He can do whatever he likes, but it must be within the ambit of the law.
“The President admitted that there is a sharp drop in electricity and that we are experiencing an agonising fuel scarcity in the country.
“The President must not, however, stop at apologising. He cannot continue to apologise over everything, he must step up. A leader must think very well before making policy statements.
“I call on him to do something about the lingering fuel scarcity. Many motorists now sleep at filling stations. Unfortunately, the Federal Government has told Nigerians not to expect solution soon. The government should end the pains without delay and stop chasing perceived political enemies.
“The President should also address job. He promised Nigerians jobs but the reverse is the case now.
“They should also pay attention to security issues, rather than exerting energy on silencing opposition. Look at the Agatu issue. That place is a food basket for the country, we should not fold our arms,” he said. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
