Jibrin Tells Buhari To Resign | See Details

Former Chairman of the House of

Representatives Committee on

Appropriation, Abdulmumin Jibrin, has

asked President Muhammadu Buhari to

resign, if he cannot resist blackmail. In a series of tweets posted on

Boxing Day,

Jibrin said Buhari is acting as if he needs the

permission of some "political overlords",

before he does his job. He also alleged Buhari was playing into the

hands of those who do not mean well for him

and his administration. Some of the tweets read: "As a President,

once you succumb to blackmail by individual,

group or institution, you are finished and

your presidency certified lame duck! "How ever high the stakes are or necessity

of the usually exaggerated 'political

expediency' a President must refuse to be

boxed or blackmail. "Mr President, all your life you conducted

yourself in such a way and manner that

immunes you from blackmail which solidified

your strength. "So why is the President appearing weak…

as if he has to beg some political

'OverLords' to do his work in the name of

"political stability"? "Mr President, 'such 'political stability'

and 'harmony' that compels you to turn

away your face where you shouldn't is

useless to our country! "Mr President, you are playing into the

hands of people who do not believe in

you&your govt. You will come back to these

tweets in 18months. "A President must repel blackmail with all

his arsenals or give up the presidency. You

cannot be an effective President while in

hostage!"
