President Muhammadu Buhari’s spokesperson, Femi Adesina has lambasted Bishop Matthew Kukah for questioning Buhari.

Kukah said: “As you prepare to return to Daura or Kaduna, I do not know if you feel fulfilled or that you met the tall dreams and goals you set for yourself such as: ending banditry, defeating corruption, bringing back our girls, belonging to everybody and belonging to nobody, selling off our presidential fleet and traveling with us.”

Adesina said: “Kukah should understand that the Buhari-led administration has tackled insurgency and banditry in the country more than the situation was in 2015.”

“The figure has been coming down progressively over the years and it’s a fact of history. Nobody can change it.”

“Buhari did not promise to sell the presidential fleet during the 2015 presidential election campaign.”

“Someone has said it is even better Kukah puts off his cassock and becomes a full-time politician.”

“He is rather too partisan. He is someone we had always admired for his intellectual bent.”

“But his opinion has been coloured by politics. He talked about selling the presidential fleet. Was that ever promised? In 2015, there were a rash of promises made that even the candidate then did not know about.”

“The question is – are we where we were on the issue of banditry in 2015? The job is not fully done but are we where we were?”

“If Kukah is true to himself and true to his calling as a cleric he will know that this country is nowhere like it was in terms of banditry as of 2015.”

“In 2015, we knew where Nigeria was. A minimum of 17 LGAs in this country was under the control of insurgents.”

“Talking about control, I mean they were sitting in emirs’ palaces and seats of LGA chairmen. NYSC could not do orientation and post people to those places. Is that what is happening today? No!”
