Dr Emmanuel Chukwuma the Archbishop of the Enugu Ecclesiastic Province has lambasted President Muhammadu Buhari and his wife, Aisha, over their recent outburst in the media
Mr Chukwuma said their blames and counter-blames constitute national disgrace
The man of God also asked President Buhari to dissolve his cabinet and appoint technocrats
Reacting through an interview he granted Daily Sun, the clergyman praised Mrs Buhari for raising the alarm that a cabal has hijacked the government of the husband.
“This is to show that Aso Rock is in confusion, because when this type of thing begins to happen between husband and wife that are supposed to be leaders of the nation, then that tells you that things are not right in the nation, and it is a very serious national disgrace when they begin to expose themselves like this. It means that the two don’t agree because right now, the husband said, “I don’t know the party my wife belongs,” and the woman is saying that the man as far as she is concerned has neglected those who campaigned for him and was left in the hands of few cabals.
“Who are those cabals? It is what we must ask. But it is quite clear that Buhari with what he is doing has no clear agenda. Some people must have been controlling the few agenda for their own selfish ends, and that is why we have not got any solution to Nigeria’s problems. So, it is high time we began to ask, where are we going Nigeria?
For the wife of the President to come out to say she doesn’t even like the way the government is going, which means things are bad and really the people are complaining. She said, “I’m not happy with my husband’s government,” if a woman can say that she is not happy with the husband’s government, that means Buhari should re-examine himself because things are getting tougher and tougher; people are getting fed up.
“There is no short cut to any success now, and we begin to ask, “where are we going?” So, it is high time we began to ask ourselves, “is this government the change that we want or a change that has changed us into serious agony?” So, for me, I believe that Buhari has failed. He has failed in his home, he has failed in governing this nation because if not, most of the things we are hearing now, even concerning the judges and other things; it’s a terrible situation.
“I think Mrs Buhari is speaking the truth and she is an insider in the house. I think she should, therefore, be allowed to have her freedom because the President was the one that said there was no place for the First Lady, and he cannot say that because everywhere in the world, even America, the wife of the President has her own role to play, and the majority percentage of the population of Nigeria are women, so I cannot see how you can push the women aside. I think women should be given their place, if the whole women rise to support the wife of the president, it will cause confusion. There will be no peace for Buhari. So, he should watch it and be very careful.
Speaking on how to move the nation forward, the Archbishop urged Mr Buhari to dissolve his cabinet and appoint technocrats.
“Mr President should dissolve his cabinet and find people who are technocrats indeed. Most of the people who are in his government are selected on sentiment to settle them on the money spent on his election.
“They are not technocrats and they are not professionals in that profession. I can’t imagine when a lawyer is seen in the housing and road construction ministry. I can’t see a way where somebody who is a medical doctor is in the labour ministry. He should listen to reasonable and responsible people. He seems not to be listening, he seems to be a military democrat and that is not acceptable in this country.
“And again, he should try as much as possible to make sure that he settles his home. All this discussion between him and Aisha should be settled. Nigerians are not happy when the house and the first home is in disarray. We want them to be settled and speak with one voice, and those bad advisers around him should get exterminated with immediate effect so that he will be able to do better for Nigeria.
