The presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party,
SDP, Adewale Adebayo, has said the government of President Muhammadu Buhari had
shut down seven years ago.
The SDP flag bearer was reacting to the shutting down of all
Unity Schools around the Federal Capital Territory by the Nigerian government
over security issues, especially threats from terrorist groups.
He warned that if nothing is done and urgently too, the
bandits will become the government and will be arresting the government.
Adebayo said people should resign honourably if they cannot
do their jobs so that those who are willing to work will take over and save the
country from collapse.
“The shutdown of the government school in FCT according to
the government is to prevent kidnapping and other things attached. But before
our schools were shut down the first thing that was shut down was the
presidency,” Adebayo told reporters in Abuja immediately after a closed-door
meeting with the leadership of the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN.
“The presidency has been shut down for the past seven years,
the government has shut itself down. So, if we are not careful the government
will be the bandits and the bandits will be arresting the government.
“We need to be serious, we need to work. We need the
president to protect us we share so many things with the government but we
can’t share law enforcement with the government.
“There can only be one Commander in Chief in the country. So
the Commander in Chief must wake up and his service chiefs must wake up. And he
must be capable of replacing them.
“The bandits are people government can deal with decisively.
But we must have a government first; if we don’t have a government first all
kinds of insults will come upon the country.
“If they want to attack hospitals now will you close too? If
they want to attack banks will you close banks too? So, what’s going to be
left? If they attack airports will you close airports too?
“Why don’t you just do the job or resign so that those who
can do the job will do the job. You can be shutting down ”
The outgoing President of the Christian Association of
Nigeria, Supo Ayokunle, said the President had come to seek advice and prayers
from the organisation ahead of the 2023 presidential election.
“Myself and Christian leaders from the States prayed for him
and wished him well,” the CAN President said.
“We need as many people that God has touched to contest for
the presidency so that people will have ample opportunities to choose the array
of presidential candidates the best that will do our nation good. This is our
prayer.”
