FIERY Catholic priest and the Spiritual Director of the Adoration Ministry Enugu Nigeria, AMEN, Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka, has absolved President Mohammadu Buhari of being completely responsible for the worsened insecurity in Nigeria.<\/p>\n
According to Mbaka, Nigeria\u2019s problems, including insecurity had deteriorated earlier that Buhari assumed leadership of the country, adding that those who plot to destabilize Nigeria will receive the worst hit.<\/p>\n
Mbaka made the statements in Enugu during his homily to celebrate the Ash Wednesday, marking the beginning of Lent.<\/p>\n
In his \u2018state of the nation\u2019 message, Fr. Mbaka berated those he said we\u2019re cajoling the Buhari administration for the harrowing experience Nigerians are presently passing through, without going back to history.<\/p>\n
He insisted that the present political, economic and insecurity problems did not start with Buhari\u2019s administration, and lambasted what he described as wasteful sixteen years administration of the People\u2019s Democratic Party, PDP.<\/p>\n
He maintained that the PDP contributed immensely to Nigeria\u2019s present adversities.<\/p>\n
Mbaka said: \u201cWhen I was shouting it so many years ago, that with the style of governance in the country, time shall come when people will be running helter-skelter, now it is happening, churches protesting everywhere.<\/p>\n
\u201cEverything Buhari, Everything Buhari our problem is immemorial, I am not trying to exonerate him totally but it\u2019s unfair not to go back to the history of how our past leaders were only concentrating on looting our funds thereby leaving us in this mess.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf we have had a type of Buhari before, our problems wouldn\u2019t have reached this climax. Look at the efforts he is making in the transport sector; road constructions which are unprecedented in the history of this nation.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn the area of economy, there is an agricultural revolution going on, N-power programme to our youths, scarcity of fuel is now a thing of the past all to ameliorate our suffering.<\/p>\n
\u201cTell me a nation that has the number of unemployed youths that will not have the insecurity we are having? Kidnapping, banditry and Boko Haram is as a result of joblessness; and we only push the blame on Buhari alone. The old man is doing his best, only that evils of yesteryears in Nigeria overwhelmed him.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat is why I continue shouting on Enugu state government to stop the demolition of people\u2019s shop even if it is to restore the master plan of Enugu state it is untimely.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat we need to do now to reduce this insecurity is to pray fervently for the mercy of God to locate us in this Lenten season.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur governors should go back to their drawing board; don\u2019t leave the insecurity problem alone to Buhari, he can\u2019t be everywhere. You people receive millions of naira every month for security votes, use that money to do meaningful things in your various state, engage youths and see whether we will not get it right.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
