Buhari can’t defeat terrorism, fix economy – Jerry Gana

Factual Pursuit of Truth for Progress

FORMER Minister of Information, Professor Jerry Gana, has said that President Muhammadu Buhari lacks the leadership qualities to end terrorism and banditry in the country.

Gana specifically said that the problem of insecurity threatening the collective exis­tence of Nigeria was not about ineffective Armed Forces but a lack of quality leadership to offer direction, guidance and release of resources for the military to work.

The former Minister of In­formation spoke yesterday in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, during the flag-off of the construc­tion of the 12th flyover by Gover­nor Nyesom Wike.

“I appeal to the Command­er-in-Chief and all other lead­ers on top that we have a mili­tary force, they are more than enough to defeat these bandits. But they need a kind of quali­tative leadership that will give direction, guidance and re­sources for them to deliver on their mandate,” he said.

Prof. Gana bemoaned the failure of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in all sectors and appealed that the national economy that is on the brink of collapse should not be allowed to slump.

“What we require is really a facilitating environment and they (economy players) will perform wonders. Nobody should allow the economy of Nigeria to collapse.

“There has been a total fail­ure by the government of APC at the centre. Nigerians are now suffering from insecurity. Even Abuja is not safe”.
