Abdulmumin Jibrin, former chairman of the house of representatives committee on appropriation, has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to “give up his presidency” if he cannot resist blackmail.
Jibrin said Buhari is acting as if he has to beg some “political overlords” before he would be allowed to do his job.
In series of tweets on Monday, the lawmaker said the president cannot be effective while in hostage.
He alleged that Buhari was playing into the hands of those who do not mean well for him and his government.
How ever high the stakes are or necessity of the usual exaggerated "political expediency" A President must refuse to be boxed or blackmail
Mr President, all your life you conducted yourself in such a way and manner that immunes you from blackmail which solidified your strength
Mr President, you are playing into the hands of people who do not believe in you&your govt. You will come back to these tweets in 18months
So why is the President appearing weak...as if he has to beg some political "OverLords" to do his work in the name of "political stability"?
This is Jibrin’s first direct attack on Buhari since he accused principal officials of the house of padding the 2016 budget.
He had earlier lamented over Buhari’s refusal to act against the leadership of the 8th assembly.
Jibrin might have given up after the president presented the 2017 budget to the national assembly.
The dust he raised over the 2016 budget led to his suspension
