Former Governor of Sokoto State and presidential aspirant on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Attahiru Bafarawa, has explained why he said President Muhammadu Buhari is a killer and not a leader.
Bafarawa had few days back told Nigerians to vote out Buhari on the ground that he’s not trained to lead but that as a soldier, his duty is to kill and defend himself.
Bafarawa insisted that since Buhari assumed office in 2015, the country had been witnessing serious retrogression both in security and economy.
He spoke yesterday, at the Government House, Port Harcourt, during a condolence visit to Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State, over the death of the Attorney General, Emmanuel Aguma.
Speaking further, Bafarawa stated that his reason for not regretting being a PDP member was because of respect and recognition accorded him by the party leadership.
He said: “I am in Port Harcourt to seek the support of PDP delegates in the forthcoming presidential primary. I am also here to seek the advice of PDP delegates as it concerns the presidential primary.
“The most important thing the country needs now is a good economy, security and education. These are the key areas we want to delve into when given the opportunity. We want to see how we can take this country out of the mess it has found itself.
“I am a true democrat. There is a difference between somebody who is an army general, somebody who was trained to kill and defend himself than a true democrat.”
