Ohanaeze, Afenifere lambast Femi Adesina for comparing Buhari to Awolowo, Azikiwe

Apex socio cultural groups, Ohanaeze and Afenifere have reacted to a recent comment by Presidential Spokesman, Femi Adesina comparing his principal, President Muhammadu Buhari to Nnamdi Azikiwe, Obafemi Awolowo and others

Ohanaeze said Adesina comparing Buhari with Azikiwe and Awolowo is like comparing IDI AMIN DADA of Uganda to Britain’s Wilson Churchill while Afenifere described it as mischievous and a mistake.

“Comparing President Buhari to Chief Obafemi Awolowo and Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe therefore is not only mistaken, it is mischievous, to say the least, Afenifere said

Ohanaeze believes Azikiwe, Awolowo and others are incomparable to Buhari in all standards, adding that Adesina might be afraid of the entrance of Femi Fani-Kayode, a former Aviation Minister, into the mainstream Party.

“Yes, Femi Adesina was right because Buhari is greater than Azikiwe and Awolowo. After all, under his boss, Nigeria entered into recession twice, under Buhari Nigeria became the world’s headquarters of poverty, unlike Azikiwe and Awolowo that was fascinated with issues of good quality policies that boosted the standards of living of Nigerians in the early ’60s, which nourished the unity of the country and offered free education to the southwest, Buhari is surrounded by praise troubadours that helplessly watched Nigeria divided along ethnic and religious lines.

“The Presidential spokesman Femi Adesina might be afraid of the entrance of Femi Fani Kayode into the mainstream Party, as the latter might be a terrific replacement for his job and the best way to get hold of his office is to poke fun at President Buhari with sycophantic fallacies, for the records, President Buhari might be unique and extraordinary in his career and lifestyle, but comparing him with Azikiwe and Awolowo is like comparing IDI AMIN DADA of Uganda to Britain’s Wilson Churchill, Azikiwe and Awolowo are the progenitors of the nation, Ohanaeze’s statement reads in part
