Stop Threatening Buhari, Arewa Group Says

An Arewa group has told various groups across the country to stop threatening President Muhammadu Buhari with national violence.

The group, Arewa Community United Foundation (ACUF) said although it is normal for the opposition party in the country to demand for unrealizable targets and express their opinions; the President should not be impeded from performing his duties and functions.

According to its state secretary, Alhaji Musa Saleh, “we have to say now that we don’t want such event to happen to our leaders anymore. Today we have President Muhammadu Buhari on seat, for those who are threatening national violence against the state, we warn them that nothing must happen to Buhari, he’s there, he has been elected by popular majority vote and he’s carrying out the administration of this country in the way to rebuild the country for greater posterity. So we are warning that nothing should happen to him but we all should support him to achieve the desired goal for the country,” he was quoted by Nation newspaper.
He said for Nigeria to develop, national unity should be encouraged and segregation discouraged, noting it as the fastest path to greatness.
Speaking on the agitation for break-up of Nigeria by the East, he asked “did they put it together, can you break what you did not put together, that’s injustice. They are working against themselves. They should change and let Nigeria be because I know Nigeria will be with or without them. Nigeria has come to stay. The Giant of Africa has come to stay.”
