Leader of the Pan-Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF), Edwin Clark, has described Nigeria’s outgoing President, Muhammadu Buhari, as Nigeria’s worst leader in the history of Nigeria.
Clark said this while addressing a press conference at his residence in Abuja recently. He said: “History will remember Buhari saying as the worst leader Nigeria has ever had for failing to see the entire country as his constituency.”
He further accused the outgoing President of “marginalising and humiliating the people of the Niger Delta”, stating that the people of the region are highly disappointed at the outgoing president.
He said: “In the past eight years, President Muhammadu Buhari has demonstrated in most cases that he did not belong to the whole country but to a group; his tribe and religion, which is contrary to what he said in his inaugural speech that he belong to everybody.
“For instance, he appointed fourteen out of seventeen security chiefs from one section of the country. So, the declaration that he belongs to everybody and nobody was a sham. I make bold to say that the reverse has been the case, he belongs to some people but not the entire Nigeria.
“Even in simple matters like extending the good wishes of the government to notable personalities in the country on their birthdays or other landmark attainments, the Muhammadu Buhari administration was selective and biased in who it chooses to recognize or consider worthy of goodwill messages.”
