Tinubu: Oby Ezekwesili demands Buhari handover power to her

In a series of tweets posted on her official Twitter handle (@obyezeks), former Minister of Education, Obiageli Ezekwesili, called on President Muhammadu Buhari to promptly relinquish power to her.

Ezekwesili referred to Buhari as an "ineffectual Commander-in-Chief of the Nigeria Armed Forces," expressing her concern over his failure to secure the nation and its citizens.

In her tweet, Ezekwesili wrote, "Let's ask the ineffectual Commander-in-Chief of the Nigeria Armed Forces @MBuhari to swiftly hand over power to me so I can satisfy his supporters' cry on his ignoble failure to secure the country, citizens, and residents of Nigeria. I welcome their vote of confidence in me."

In another tweet, she added, "Once I analytically surmised that demanding action on any governance issue from @MBuhari was equivalent to expecting the impossible, I stopped. We have a so-called Commander-in-Chief of Armed Forces, who sorely degenerated the state of our country's security. Ignoble legacy."

The tweet from Ezekwesili followed the outcry from President Buhari's supporters, who expressed their dissatisfaction with his inability to ensure the country's safety.

Buhari is expected to handover the keys to Aso Rock on May 29, 2023, to the President-elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
