 Buhari Can Go On Leave And Allow Somebody Else Rule Nigeria – Kadaria Ahmed

Media Personality and Chief Executive Officer of RadioNow, Kadaria Ahmed has said that President Muhammadu Buhari should take a sick leave and allow someone else to take charge of affairs of the country.

Reacting to the controversy that trailed her article which criticized BBC documentary on Zamfara banditry in an interview with Arise TV on Wedneday August 3, the media personality said her concerns over the documentary was not intended to excuse the government on its responsibility of safeguarding the lives and property.

Ahmed said; 

 “I think Nigerians ought to tell their politicians that it is time to have a bipartisan approach to insecurity, because it is something that is going to consume us. Even now as it is consuming us, we are not asking who is PDP or who is APC. And this continuous politicisation of insecurity, for me, portends a serious danger to Nigeria.

“The grandstanding doesn’t make sense to me, because we are dealing with an existential threat, something that could actually wreck us all. I am not too sure we could get to elections, which is what people are holding onto, and saying, ‘if we get there maybe the new people coming in…’ but what happens between now and elections is a long period.

“So, our politicians need to become a little more aware, and even if it is behind the scenes. I am not even sure if we need to be seeing them on TV working things out, no. Please go behind the scenes, sit down, and reach a bipartisan agreement about how you’re going to deal with the crises that Nigeria is facing. We have never had it so bad. And if we are not careful, under their watch, we are losing this country. APC, PDP, all of them, so go behind the scenes.”

Ahmed added that if President Buhari is sick and incapable of running the country, he should step aside and allow somebody else to take over.

She said; 

“Even if it is a question of persuading the president. I don’t know, he has not been well, may be he can go on sick leave for an extended period and allow somebody else to have a go.  Because by his own admission, he said something like ‘no country on its own can defeat terrorism.’

“What I am hearing is, ‘I am not too sure there is anything more I can do.’ That is what I hear when I hear that. So, may be it is time to look at other options”
