Second Republic former Governor of Old Kaduna State, Balarabe Musa, has accused President Muhammadu Buhari of failing Nigerians.
The Elderstateman lamented that President Buhari  dashed the hope and beliefs reposed on him by millions of Nigerians when he climbed the saddle as President of the nation.
Balarabe  faulted the President over the high level of insecurity and killings in the country, mostly in Southern Kaduna, which has seen thousands of people lose their lives over the years.
Condemning the incessant attacks and killings in Southern Kaduna and other parts of the country, Balarabe, said, “No serious and patriotic government will allow this level of Killings of its citizens by terrorist and be watching aimlessly.”
According to the former old Kaduna State governor, President Buhari has failed in all aspects of governance, including the economy, and the handling of insecurity in the country.
“Nigerians must do a lot to ensure that civil war does not break out under the Buhari administration, as relayed by Prof Obadiah Mailafia, the former Deputy Governor of CBN”.
Reacting to the statements credited to Prof. Obadiah Mailafia, after his outburst that bandits have taken over Nigeria, alleging that a Northern Governor was a    Boko Haram Commander.
Mailafia in an interview said that the decision by the Federal Government to import arms and ammunition from Russia, China, United States, and Jordan was not something to be taken seriously anymore, since the government had allowed the terrorists and armed bandits to take over the country before realizing the need for arms importation.

“Imagine the President saying he wants to import arms from Russia, China, US, and Jordan; these countries will see us as a Nation that is not serious,” he lamented.

He added, “Is it now we suddenly realized that we should import arms when the people have been killed and maimed by terrorists and armed bandits? See, this is an unserious and irresponsible government. Nigerians should not take this government seriously over this mindless level of insecurity.”

According to him, the level of insecurity and economic mismanagement has gone to a higher level, adding that anything can happen.

“This can even lead to civil disobedience and civil war,” Balarabe stated.

On Kaduna State, he noted that once the government cannot deal with the insecurity in one state when the situation is all over the country, the government naturally loses grip on its security challenges.

Meanwhile, Wikipedia, a free web-based encyclopedia project which contains information on a wide variety of subjects, has listed Nigeria as one of the failed states in the world.

Wikipedia notes that a failed state is defined as a political body that has disintegrated such that basic conditions and responsibilities of a sovereign government no longer function properly.

The free web-based encyclopedia further revealed that a state is determined as failed if the government loses its legitimacy even if it is performing its functions properly.

This means that a government must enjoy both effectiveness and legitimacy, to be considered as stable.
