Former Minister of Aviation, Femi
Fani-Kayode, has criticized President Muhammadu Buhari, over his response
to the Benue flood that has rendered many homeless.
Fani-Kayode labelled the
President’s reaction as “weak and pathetic”.
He tweeted: “Nothing reflects the
cruelty and insensitivity of @MBuhari more than his weak and pathetic response
to the Benue flood where many have died.”
A statement by the presidential
spokesman, Garba Shehu, had said the President was closely monitoring the
situation, and will be receiving regular updates on the scale of the disaster,
as well as the Federal Government’s humanitarian response.
“The President extends his
sympathies to the Government and people of Benue State, and assures that the
Federal Government will make available any assistance needed to enable the
State Government and the affected communities cope with and surmount the impact
of the flooding,” he added.
Buhari has also directed the
National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), to immediately mobilize personnel
and resources to come to the aid of the victims of the flooding.
