The Northern Elders Forum (NEF) on Sunday has passed a vote of no confidence in the Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari.
NEF at a press conference on the state of the nation held in Zaria stated that the president had failed to secure and pilot the affairs of the Nigerian nation.
A former secretary of the nation’s electoral body, INEC (Independent National Electoral Commission), Dr Hakeem Baba-Ahmed while reading the text of the press conference said the President who is from the Northern part of the country did not only failed the north but the entire nation, based on assessment of his leadership methodology.
Commenting on the state of security, NEF said; “The forum demands a thorough overhaul of the leadership of our security and public safety agencies, and the injection of higher levels of competence, integrity and accountability in the manner our troops and the police and security agencies deal with security challenges,”
The Forum which was against the election of the president in 2019 also noted; “The relationship between insecurity and poverty is fundamental, but the administration does not appear to have any idea on what will provide relief or solution.
