Governor Dave Umahi of Ebonyi State has categorically stated that President Muhammadu Buhari should not be blamed for the state of insecurity in the nation. Umahi blames past leaders who, he said, failed in addressing the issue.
He said the failure of past Nigerian leaders to address the future of youths was responsible for the current spate of insecurity, which has escalated.
Appearing on Channels Television, On Politics Today, the Chairman of the Southeast Governors Forum disclosed that Nigerians should not blame the current administration for the spike in insecurity, insisted that the situation was systemic.
The Governor called for sincerity in the fight against insecurity if the country is to win the war, and should not be playing blame game.
Reacting to this, Reno Omokri, former aide to immediate past President of the nation, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, revealed during an interview on Africa Independent Television, AIT, that President Buhari was Miyetti Allah’s Supreme Leader before 2015, that’s why he can’t go against them.
He stressed that in recent times, the activities of the Miyetti Allah association made of cattle herders have come under serious scrutiny as they seem to be in support of alleged herdsmen violence and the State of insecurity in the nation today.
He, however, added that even though the Miyetti Allah through their leaders have reportedly made several inflammatory statements, the Government has not done anything to caution them.
This, he said, has caused many persons to believe that the government of Buhari is being complacent when it comes to disciplining the Miyetti Allah Group.
