President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday received some harsh criticism from the factional Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Kano State, Hussaini Mairiga, who described him as a total failure.
Speaking with journalists in Kano, Mairiga, said "from the looks of things, President Buhari has betrayed the confidence of the Nigerian masses who voted for him massively into power."
Mairiga, who is known for his bluntness, expressed worry that after one year of the Buhari administration in power, there was nothing to show while poverty in the country had reached an unprecedented level.
He lamented that a bag of rice now sold for N16,000, while prices of other essentials commodities had tripled.
Going further, the factional Chairman said it was not an exaggeration that members of many families in the country go to bed without at least one square meal.
According to the factional APC Chairman, another disturbing scenario was that those around President Buhari- including his Ministers- had refused to tell him the truth about the reality on ground.
He reminded Buhari of his campaign promises, stating that he did not like the way the masses were allowed to wallow in destitution and penury.
He said Nigerians were in the worst condition that needed urgent attention.
Hitting harder at Buhari, Mairiga advised the President to stop deceiving Nigerians that the nation had no money whereas on monthly basis, the federal and states governments continued to enjoy a boost in their allocations.
