President Buhari's Weakness Is Making Him Fail Nigeria And Nigerians

By George Onmonya Daniel

President Muhammadu Buhari's Achilles heel is his profound lack of knowledge. He is not a properly educated and analytical man, lacks political savvy and sagacity. So he has always depended on other more intelligent people to do the job. Joining the army at a young age, all he is good at was following orders, carrying out orders and giving orders. In his time as military head of state, Tunde Idiagbon was there to assist in the areas of thinking and implementation but being the head of state he took all the credit for Idiagbon's job.

Today it is different. Buhari's Idiagbon is his cousin, Mamman Daura. Afraid of VP Osinbajo taking credit, Mamman Daura do the job and put Baba upfront to claim the credit.

Some other people know this weakness and one of such is the Chief of Defence Staff, General Buratai. When Baba was not in Nigeria, General Buratai was quiet, activities were quiet that Boko Haram came out strong. Immediately General Buratai saw that Baba was coming back he rushed to the media to give the army 40 days ultimatum to get Shekau dead or alive. He know Baba's weakness. Just rush to the media and make a lot of noise about doing your job and Baba is satisfied.

Before Baba went to London, the EFCC were always on Facebook bursting thieves and splashing it all over the social media. After Baba left, they went silent, and now that Baba is back they are looking for avenue to start catching thieves in the media. Don't you see the Custom boss bursting containers of shotguns? How many container did he burst when Baba was away in London?

When General Buratai couldn't give Baba Buhari the Boko Haram CEO, Shekau, dead or alive, after his 40 days ultimatum, he is now on the prowl python dancing, attacking armless civilians with his men in Igbo land to keep his job. These men know the psychological make up of Buhari.

Is all the media noise, attack on Nigerians, from Shiite to now Biafra agitators solving any problem? Are these numerous onslaughts on the citizens for the purpose of solving any problem? It is simply to massage the ego of Baba Buhari.
This is not how to unite a country.
