The Presidency has berated the Coalition of Northern Groups’ for disparaging the Democracy Day and accusing government of repressing the north.
But in a statement issued by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu, the Presidency lambasted the group for abusing the democratic freedom that the Muhammadu Buhari administration had sustained. “It then amounts to a grave mistake, for this group of otherwise promising northern stars to dissociate themselves from Democracy Day and, in effect de-cognizing democracy as a chosen system of government.
“We are facing severe hardships because of the coronavirus pandemic. And we continue to face the challenges posed by the terrorists Boko Haram. “This government has done more than any other – elected or not elected – to curtail and beat back the terrorists. Similarly, no government has done more to foster democracy and freedom of speech in Nigeria than the current administration.
