Yet, the Buhari regime did not purchase it. But Buhari spent over \u20a6200 million buying a bulletproof Mercedes Maybach for himself. Buhari cares only about himself!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBuhari has 10 Presidential jets and more than 10 Mercedes Benzes worth over \u20a61 billion. Yet, he can\u2019t provide even one bomb detector for the Abuja-Kaduna rail, 6 months after it was first bombed on October 22, 2022. Nigeria has 2 terrorists. Buhari and the bandits!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDear Buhari, just this month you gave $1 million to the terrorist government of Afghanistan. That money could have bought 10 bomb detectors for the Abuja-Kaduna rail. You spent $8 million on repentant Boko Haram. Wouldn\u2019t that have been best spent on bomb detectors?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cHow many people did IPOB kill before Buhari threatened them with his now infamous \u2018speak to them in a language they understand\u2019 tweet? How come he has not spoken to terrorists in the same language? Is it because they are from his tribe, and not a dot in a circle?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Recall that the Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria, HURIWA, had recently faulted the decision of President Buhari to give $1 million to Afghanistan through the Organisation of Islamic Countries, OIC.<\/p>\n<p>The group said it was unconstitutional for Buhari to donate $1 million of public funds without appropriation to the OIC for onward disbursement to the Islamic regime that came to power by the barrel of a gun in Afghanistan.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
