Chieftain of Yoruba
socio-cultural organization, Ayo Adebanjo, has maintained that Muhammadu Buhari
has shown that he is President of the North.
Adebanjo said this while reacting
to claim by World Bank President, Jim Yong Kim that Buhari asked the
organisation to focus its developmental projects on the North.
Speaking with Punch, Adebanjo
said it is devastating that the world are now aware of Buhari’s “nepotism.”
Adebanjo said since Buhari
assumed power, all his actions have shown that he belongs to nobody but the
North.
He said, “The disclosure of the
President of the World Bank Group only confirmed what I have been saying that
President Muhammadu Buhari is president of the North and not president of
Nigeria. It is unfortunate that even the international community is also aware
of this nepotism – of Buhari’s unbridled desire to favour a section of the
country to the detriment of the others. Is it only the North that is
devastated? What about the Niger Delta region? What exactly has been done to
salvage the area?
“He should focus on productive
areas to engender development in the country. Buhari’s body language, words and
actions show he is president of the North. Only those who are gullible will
accept what his mouthpieces are saying – it’s mere damage control.
“You will notice of late that
while the world is doing the best they can to shift their economic focus away
from crude oil, the current administration of Buhari is doing the opposite.
”Despite repeated calls by
economic experts, both local and foreign experts, that Nigeria should diversify
its economy and be less dependent on oil, Buhari has continued to spend the
country’s meager money in our treasury for oil exploration in the North – he is
wasting our money.
“Everything that Buhari has done
so far since he assumed office as president shows where he belongs to. It is
apparent he belongs to nobody but the northerners – he does not belong to
everybody in this country. He turns a blind eye to everything happening outside
the northern region.”
