According to the leader of the Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF), President Muhammadu Buhari has, in many instances, shown that he prioritises his tribe and religion over the entire nation during his eight-year tenure. This is in contrast to his inaugural speech, where he claimed to belong to everyone.
In a recent development, it has been reported that fourteen out of seventeen security Chiefs were appointed from a single section of the country by him. The statement claiming that “he belongs to everybody and nobody” has been deemed a deception. According to the speaker, it appears that the sentiment “he belongs to some people” is more prevalent than the idea that he belongs to the entire nation of Nigeria.
