A human rights activist and Executive Chairman, Centre for Human
Rights and Social Justice (CHRSJ), Comrade Adeniyi, Alimi Sulaiman has
strongly condemned the failure of President Muhammadu Buhari to
fulfill part of his electioneering campaign promises to provide social
welfare of payment of N5, 000 stipends to the unemployed youths in the
country, saying that President Buhari should tender unreserved apology
from the people of the country, particularly the affected youths.
Reacting on the issue through a signed statement which a copy was made
available to newsmen in Lagos yesterday, Comrade Sulaiman noted that
the President Buhari’s Saudi Arabia pronouncement, has contradicted
his government promised to ensure that the “social welfare package”
programmes inculcated in the 2016 Budget, upon which the All
Progressives Congress (APC) led –Federal Government planned to borrow
over N2trillion to finance this year budget which is currently before
the National Assembly.
He maintained that most of the electioneering campaign promises of
President Buhari and his party (APC) have been reneged without
tangible explanation for such development, insisting that the present
administration in the country had been making the Nigeria masses to be
concluding that APC led- Federal Government did not have solution to
the nation’s problems.
According to him,” President Muhammadu Buhari and his party, All
Progressive Congress (APC) just bamboozled the people of the country
with sugar coated mouth to win their votes during the 2015
Presidential Election process and throw them into towel after winning
the election. Nine months to the President Buhari’s administration,
nothing to show in term of single achievement in governance. Nigeria
masses are wallowing in abject poverty and the present situation is
not the kind of change the people voted for in March 28, 2015.”
CHRSJ boss urged President Buhari to thread the path of honour and integrity to look inward to solve the mirage of problems facing the country by developing political will to fulfill his electioneering
campaign promises including Payment of N5,000 Allowance to the
unemployed youths, instead of gallivanting all over the globe to look
for help in solving Nigeria problems.
Sulaiman quoting the National Leader of the ruling All Progressives
Congress (APC), Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu during the University of Abuja Convocation ceremony recently that Nigeria did not need
patch-patch change currently experiencing from Buhari’s government, stressing that Nigeria needs genuine fundamental restructuring both politically and economically.
