Terrorists Attacks: HURIWA Demands  Buhari’s Resignation

By Ayodele Oni

The Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria, HURIWA has demanded the resignation of President Muhammadu Buhari over the double terrorists attack in the country on Tuesday.

The daring terrorists had first attacked the president Advance convoy in Katsina his home state, killing at least two policemen and many other injured.

Few hours After, some gunmen suspected to be terrorists, attacked Kuje Medium Prison, freeing over 800 inmates, according to the Ministry of the Interior.

As a result of the incident many Nigerians have demanded the resignation of President Buhari who they say has lost control of the situation.

The two incidents according to Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA), have further exposed the failure  in the security system of the country.

The association has therefore, asked President Muhammadu Buhari to resign or be impeached over his failure to tackle the situation.

HURIWA’s National Coordinator, Comrade Emmanuel Onwubiko, in a statement, on Wednesday in Abuja, expressed belief that the Buhari government and the military are confortable with the spate of terrorist attacks in the country, as they have failed to deploy the 12 Super Tucano fighter jets against terrorists turning the country into another Afghanistan.

According to the statement, “These major incidents are too heavy to be ignored. Terrorists are becoming daring because the government is in bed with armed Fulani terrorists.

“These bandits were designated as terrorists by a Federal High Court in November 202, but eight months after, the government has not taken any definitive military actions to stamp them out.

“In fact, the 12 Super Tucano fighter jets bought from the United States have not been deployed against the terrorists in the North-West despite that the court judgement ordered the government to do so.

“The failure and inaction of the government have buoyed the heinous and condemnable crimes of the terrorists who now make a fortune from the odious venture of kidnapping Nigerians.

“They have gone as far as collecting taxes like in Kaduna where farmers have so far paid N400 million in protection tax to Fulani terrorists.

“Similarly, attacks on prisons have grown so much under Buhari. There have been about 15 jailbreaks in the last five years under Buhari and over 3,400 inmates have fled.

“Buhari has failed Nigerians and himself. This is the time for either Buhari to resign or he be impeached if the National Assembly members can grow ball.

“They must do it or else Nigeria is doomed and over 200 million refugees will flow out of Nigeria. Why is the minister of interior is yet to resign?” HURIWA said
