Ayo Adebanjo, leader of Yoruba sociopolitical organisation, Afenifere, has berated President Muhammadu Buhari’s methods of governance, accusing him of behaving like Roman Emperor Nero who did nothing while his empire was falling.
In a statement signed by Afenifere’s spokesman, Jare Ajayi, the Yoruba leader also accused President Buhari of failing to fulfill his campaign promises.
According to him: “This attitude on the part of President Buhari ‘recalls to one’s mind, the story of the Roman Emperor Nero who was busy on the fiddle when his empire was burning’.
“Afenifere not only called on President Muhammadu Buhari to ‘redirect its administration adroitly, we advise his government to embrace democratic ethos immediately by pursuing only policies that are in the best interests of the people.”
