Buhari Pushing Nigeria To Disintegration — Sen. Abaribe

The Senate Minority leader, Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe has raised
the alarm that President Muhammadu Buhari was pushing the country
to war and disintegration.

The senator, who represents Abia Central senatorial district in
Abia State said the spates of insecurity and killings in all parts
of the country were caused by Buhari’s policy of nepotism bad
sectionalism.

In his keynote address delivered yesterday at 2021 law week of
the Owerri Branch of the Nigeria Bar Association, Abaribe said that
the “president’s “enthronement of sectionalism and nepotism has led
to the country to be on free fall.”

“Ethnic triumphalism of President Buhari’s tribesmen, Fulani,
has equally helped in fueling disintegration of the country. In my
interactions with Nigerians across all divides and classes, you get
the impression that Nigerians do not want to go to war. You also
get the impression that Nigerians don’t want to be divided into
many mini countries today,” he explained

“But, Nigerians are being pushed to the wall by two things:
Nepotism and sectionalism of this government and ethnic
triumphalism that is going on; importing people from outside
Nigerian who come into this country and decimating people in this
country and no effort is being made to tackle the problem because
some people think they are of a particular religion or ethnic
nationality.

“Under the watch of the present government, Fulani militia are
on a mission of conquest all over Nigeria. By infiltrating and
trying to take over every region of this country, we have had to
witness killings of natives, women raped, farmlands destroyed,
kidnappings of citizens all over the country and forests forcefully
occupied.

“The security forces that should offer protection seem to rather
act as if they are in collusion with the criminals and this
invading army being treated with seeming indifference.

“Nigerians, who bear the brunt of these attacks daily, lose hope
in the idea of unity of the nation.”
