Opinion: Nigeria Is Bigger Than Buhari, By Majeed Dahiru
As presently constituted, the government of President Buhari is fundamentally detached from the everyday realities of the Nigerian people and appears hopelessly helpless in the face of mounting socio-economic and security challenges currently confronting the Nigerian state.
However, President Buhari’s biggest failure so far has been his inability to contain and defeat the hydra-headed monster of insecurity that is currently tearing the Nigerian state apart. The resurgence of the Boko Haram insurgency in the North-East has once again put a lie to the claim of “technically” defeating one of the world’s most deadliest terror groups by the Buhari administration.
The heightened state of insecurity in Buhari’s Nigeria has raised genuine concerns among critical stakeholders across partisan lines and ethno-geographic divides, with Nigerians demanding strong action from the government. Unfortunately, President Buhari cannot be the solution to a problem that he is part of.
