Biden won’t support Buhari’s government – Pat Utomi

Political economist, Prof Patrick Utomi has expressed that the incoming government of Joe Biden won’t support the Buhari-led Administration.

He shared this in an interview with The PUNCH on Monday January 18. According to him, the former US President Barack Obama and his then-deputy Joe Biden, backed a regime change in Nigeria in 2015 but there hasn’t been any change yet as the Country has become a dangerous place to live in.

He said;

“Obama was an extreme activist in seeking regime change in Nigeria because of the vast corruption and many of us supported the move but we later found out that the corruption did not change; Nigeria is more corrupt today than it was in the past.

“So, Biden will go back to a more liberal engagement with Nigeria but he is not going to be supportive of the incumbent (Buhari) the way Obama was because they can see that the incumbent fails to bring Nigeria together or move it forward, because they have now realised that Nigeria has become a more dangerous place to live”

  1. that is true because buhari administration is worse promoting peace and unities but very good in promoting religionist extremist, thuggery, kidnapping and also wasting the lives and property of innocent civilians….

  2. Infact, if there’s anything to call more than dangerous we will call it, a country where bandits are rewarding and hardworking people are left unattended to.

  3. We are all hope for change for good but to our disappointed everything is now changing from good to bad then, who will now support that.

  4. President Buhari really disappointed everyone of us on the three things he promised us such as security, economic and corruption but after six years nothing to show for it.

  5. Let us what will happen when he later swearing in, I hope he will correct so many things about Nigeria by placing ban on corrupt leaders.

  6. Biden may turn out to be the best American president that have the interest of Nigeria and Africa as whole at heart and do some remarkable things for them. With the few appointments he has made so far, many Nigeria and African-American black have been appointed into choice positions. This shows Biden as a de-tribalized president who wants to achieve with a team that can give him result. Unlike our own president who think that only those that give him the highest votes are capable to rule with him. Biden can not work with such president with biased mind mind like ours
