Listen to Buhari’s audio message below.
Former aide to Ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Pastor Reno Omokri, has queried why Nigeria’s President, Muhammadu Buhari, whom he described as a national leader, would, in his Eid-El-Fitr message, address Nigerians in a sectional language.

Recall that presidency, earlier, released an audio message wherein President Buhari who has been in London on a follow-up medical check-up for about 50 days now, spoke in Hausa language, wishing Nigerians and especially the Muslim faithful a happy Eid-El-Fitr celebration.
But Pastor Omokri maintained that, “Ideally, the President should have spoken in English first, then if he feels like it, he may also speak in Hausa,” because “the way he has now spoken only in Hausa makes it seem as if he is only concerned with those who gave him 97% of the votes while those who have him 5% can take a hike!”
“In a country whose official language is English, President Muhammadu Buhari broadcasts his Sallah message in Hausa! Would Trump (whose origin is German) address America in German?
“So what about all those Nigerians who can’t speak Hausa? Ideally, the President should have spoken in English first, then if he feels like it, he may also speak in Hausa.
The way he has now spoken only in Hausa makes it seem as if he is only concerned with those who gave him 97% of the votes while those who have him 5% can take a hike!”
“How would the rest of the country have felt if President Olusegun Obasanjo had released a Christmas broadcast to Nigerians in Yoruba or if President Goodluck Jonathan had done so in Ogbia?
How can a NATIONAL leader address Nigerians in a SECTIONAL language?”
“Nigeria has never had a leader as divisive as Buhari! There is no difference between President Buhari and Nnamdi Kanu. President Buhari is the President of all Nigeria.
He is not the President of only those who can speak Hausa! This is an outrage! “President Yar’adua also spoke to the BBC News by phone.
He is Fulani, like President Buhari. Yet he spoke in English because he was President of all of us!” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

I really pity this country. The APC national administration is a fraud of patriotism with deceitful elements of lie, tinubus and treacherous misfits like oshiomoles, amaechis, okororochas etc. God will judge them for damaging this country in the quest to meet their personal interests ..... Otherwise how else could a sectional bigot had succeeded in leading 170 million people from unity right into babel. It's a sad commentary

ReplyDeleteNigeria is now a fulani conquered territory.
ReplyDeleteWhen will the so-called Nigerians especially the people from East and West realize that Nigeria is an Islamic Sharia State? What else do you need to know about this murderous and abominable contraption created by the evil British Empire and handed over to Sokoto Caliphate? Please wake up and free yourself. All hail Biafra!
ReplyDeleteThey can try, try, try and try.
ReplyDeleteNigeria operates a secular system of Govt. where different religious bodies have freedom of faith to worship.
It is what was instituted from the onset.
Nothing, absolutely nothing can change that.
Hahahahaha, one day it may be in fulani Language
ReplyDeleteThe question is--what is the message about?? Did he speak evil or good? Why all these hullabaloo? What for??
ReplyDeleteOga please receive sense...our lingua franca Is English language,so therefore,if any president wants to address Nigerians,it should be in the language that is generally comprehendable...that's the bonn of contention here..
