President Muhammadu Buhari has, again, gone under heavy examination for allegedly being conceited and insensitive toward the security situation in the country.
A former presidential aide and socio-political activist, Reno Omokri, called out the President over the ‘successful’ bombing of the Abuja-Kaduna train by suspected terrorists.
According to Omokri, President Buhari has over 10 bulletproof Mercedes Maybach worth N200 millionn each but could not give even one bomb dictator, which cost just N180 million.

The former aide to former President Goodluck Jonathan also asked why President Buhari gifted Afghanistan $1 million when his own nation is in chaos, security and economic wise.
According to the foremost presidential critic, “The machine that would have detected bombs on the Abuja-Kaduna rail tracks cost about ₦180 million. Yet, the Buhari regime did not purchase it. But Buhari spent over ₦200 million buying a bulletproof Mercedes Maybach for himself. Buhari cares only about himself!
“Buhari has 10 Presidential jets and more than 10 Mercedes Benzes worth over ₦1 billion. Yet, he can’t provide even one bomb detector for the Abuja-Kaduna rail, 6 months after it was first bombed on October 22, 2022. Nigeria has 2 terrorists. Buhari and the bandits!
“Dear Buhari, just this month you gave $1 million to the terrorist government of Afghanistan. That money could have bought 10 bomb detectors for the Abuja-Kaduna rail. You spent $8 million on repentant Boko Haram. Wouldn’t that have been best spent on bomb detectors?”

Omokri added, “How many people did IPOB kill before Buhari threatened them with his now infamous ‘speak to them in a language they understand’ tweet? How come he has not spoken to terrorists in the same language? Is it because they are from his tribe, and not a dot in a circle?”
Recall that the Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA) had recently faulted the choice of President Buhari to give $1 million to Afghanistan through the Organisation of Islamic Countries (OIC).
HURIWA had maintained that it was unconstitutional for President Buhari to donate $1 million of public assets without appropriation to the OIC for onward dispensing to the Islamic system that came to control by the barrel of a gun in Afghanistan.
