Buhari has destroyed democracy in Nigeria —HURIWA

Buhari has destroyed democracy -The Human Rights Writers Association (HURIWA) has accused the President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration of destroying constitutional democracy in Nigeria and called on Nigerians to remain vigilant.

In a statement signed by HURIWA’s National Coordinator, Emmanuel Onwubiko, and the National Media Affairs Director, Zainab Yusuf, on Saturday to mark the May 29th 2021 Democracy Day, the rights group said Buhari has, in six years, “replaced democracy with dictatorship of an unelected cabal.”

QThe group added that the government of the day had “established corruption and permissive economic crimes amongst top federal government officials.”

The group further lamented that the president had allowed armed militia to continue to destabilize the North-West region of the country.

Decrying the alleged killings of youths in the South-East region by security agents, HURIWA said: Buhari has destroyed democracy.

“We are convinced that the current administration has increasingly failed to stop the extrajudicial killings of the youngsters in Igbo land under the guise that they are members of the Indigenous peoples of Biafra (IPOB) already banned by President buhari

The group also allege that the armed forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria have successfully been transformed into armed forces of Northern Nigeria with only Moslem Northerners manning all strategic internal security Architectures since the Year 2015 and are right now committing grand scale mass killings in the South East of Nigeria.
