The Secretary-General of the
Arewa Consultative Forum, ACF, Elder Anthony Sani, has revealed the major
problem with the President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration.
Sani identified Buhari’s culture
of silence in every issue that comes up as his major flaw.
While commending the government
for the fight against corruption and terrorism, the ACF scribe noted that the
president hasn’t spoken out when his voice needed to be heard.
Sani told Punch that there was
serious division in the All Progressives Congress, APC’s government as members
of the party seem to be attacking one another.
He said, “I also do not fancy the
culture of silence by the President on almost all challenges that come up.
“This conveys an avoidable
impression of a leadership style that allows problems to fizzle out with time.
Some of us do not like such style.
“In addition, while the emphasis
the president puts on appointing only people he personally knows to be very
loyal is in line with his professional training may be understandable, he needs
to know that some of the appointees can still abuse his trust, hence the need
for presidential oversight on their activities
“I believe the regime has done
creditably well in the fight against the insurgence and corruption in order to
clear the way for the economy which is picking up.
“That may explain why the letter
by the former president has become controversial. If the regime has not
performed creditably well, Obasanjo’s letter would have received national
endorsement.
“No regime can be perfect.
Surely, the regime has its own shortcomings such as the impression of a divided
presidency where government’s functionaries openly contradict themselves
“Also, a party with majority in
the legislature should be seen as working in harmony. But this is not the case
because members of the ruling party openly challenge the president and the
executive arm of the government. This is odd.”
