The Archbishop Emeritus of Lagos Archdiocese and former President of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Anthony Cardinal Olubunmi Okogie Friday, said President Muhammadu Buhari should not bother re-contesting in order not to make things worse in Nigeria.
The cardinal in a telephone interview with New Telegraph stated that Buhari’s performance so far has been below the average mark.
Key excerpts:
- They are telling us that we have pulled out of the recession. Go to the market, there’s nothing like that. There’s no sign of improvement.
- They promised to do everything but on getting into the saddle, they keep procrastinating.
- Look at the parliament, what are they doing in the House of Representatives? What are they doing in the Senate? What are the so-called big men doing? It’s very painful. We are going from bad to worse. Very soon, we’ll get to worst if there’s no change before December.
- Everybody is taking the laws into their hands the way they like. Would you call this a nation? You can’t walk freely on the street. You are not sure of having a meal per day. You are not sure of seeing tomorrow.
- There are many other people lined up. And we’re talking about Buhari and Atiku.
