Professor Wole Soyinka has said he does not believe
President Muhammadu Buhari is in charge of the country.
Reacting to the rising insecurity in the country during an
Arise TV programme, Soyinka said the president does not appreciate the enormity
of the problems.
The Noble Laureate said happenings in the country shows
Buhari does not understand the gravity of the farmer-herders crisis.
“I have said this before and I wish to repeat this, Buhari
does not appreciate the situation. He doesn’t understand, I see no evidence
that he understands how grave the situation is.
“I have said again and again that I don’t believe he is in
charge, because it’s not possible in my view for a head of state, a
commander-in-chief of the armed forces to say he is presiding over a nation and
things get to this level, something is critically wrong within the leadership
of this nation.
“Wole Soyinka is just another individual, just like another
farmer, another student and I want the people to understand this, what happened
to me with this incident is just typical of what’s happening to millions of
people all over the country and we cannot just sit still and say that we are
relying on central help when obviously it’s not coming,” Soyinka said.
He also clarified the reports that herdsmen attacked him at
his residence, saying nothing of such happened.
