Suspended National Publicity
Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Timi Frank, has told President
Muhammadu Buhari that Nigerians may end up in regret and despair for voting him
into office.
Frank said this in an open letter
he addressed to the President.
In the letter, the former mouth
piece of the ruling party said the president must do more in obeying the rule
of law and stop attacking those he sees as opposition to his administration.
Part of Frank’s letter entitled,
‘June 12 and the Burden of good governance’, reads, “Mr President, having been
a lone voice in criticizing the activities of your administration, despite
being a member of the APC, many will wonder what the true intent of this Open
Letter may convey, but be rest assured sir, that only those who mean well for
this country will speak up when wrong is being painted as right.
“The CHANGE mantra upon which
this administration was voted into power massively by Nigerians, irrespective
of ethnic, religious and social affiliations, is fast eroding away and I’m
afraid, sir, that if nothing is done to Right the Wrong, then the Hopes and
Aspirations which had ushered in a brighter tomorrow will end up in Regret and
Despair.
“That I have decided to speak up
against the current ills in the system attest to the fact that, it is only when
people speak up that True Change will eventually occur. The resilience and
belief in the June 12 Struggle attest to the fact that those who fought for democracy
in Nigeria believed in the truest meaning of democracy in all its
ramifications.
“A country where the RULE OF LAW,
FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND ASSOCIATION, UPHOLDING
THE RIGHTS OF EVERY CITIZEN AND
ABOVE ALL RESPECT FOR FUNDAMENTAL HUMAN RIGHTS was and is the very pillar upon
which Chief MKO ABIOLA and several others paid the ultimate price with their
lives.
“Anything short of this will
amount to MILITOCRACY or DICTATORSHIP as it were. The lack of adherence to
these social rights, I must admit, are very prevalent in this administration
and seems to be growing larger by the day.
“These ills are reminiscent of
and a sad reminder of the Junta days, with many regretting their actions of
voting the APC into power. It will be pertinent, Mr. President sir, to proceed
on a personal fact finding mission to the Nigerian streets, irrespective of
bias, to find out the true reflections and opinions of Nigerians toward your
administration.”
