Resign, hand over to Osinbajo – Northern Elders tell Buhari

Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, the spokesperson of the Northern Elders Forum, NEF, has told President Muhammadu Buhari to tender his resignation.

He said Buhari should just tender his resignation now because things would be tougher.

He made this revelation in reaction to the President’s confession that he is eager to relinquish power.

MOUTHPIECE NGR recalls that Buhari had said: “I wish the person who is coming after me the very best. I am eager to go. I can tell you it has been tough”, he said.

Reacting, the former Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) Secretary, said it’s not too late for the president to throw in the towel.

“President Buhari told APC Govs that he is looking forward to the end of his tenure, saying it has been tough.

“Who would remind him that he does not need to wait until May 29th, 2023? Who will tell him it looks like things will only get tougher?”, he tweeted.

While responding to a user of Twitter, who revealed that Buhari “doesn’t listen to mad men”, Hakeem Baba-Ahmed said: “Please tell him yourself.

“You will be doing us all a great favour. Remind him he is elected to perform governance functions like protecting citizens.

“If he will not, or cannot, he can yield the office to his Vice until 2023.Then he can start resting now. That’s how it works.”
