Femi Adesina Accuses Opposition Of Widespread Killings In Nigeria

The presidency Wednesday attributed the widespread killings in the country to the political enemies of President Muhammadu Buhari, saying they were the sponsors of the killing machines that have sent many Nigerians to their untimely graves.

According to the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, who spoke in an interview, the president’s enemies resorted to the bestial act to discredit his scorecard on security, which he said was one of the three-prong planks Buhari ascended the presidency.

He stressed that the killings across the country were being instigated and sponsored by the opposition to weaken the incumbent government as much as possible.

The presidential spokesman said security agencies were investigating those behind the killings in the country, warning that once they were identified, they would be dealt with.

He also stated that the protests around the country over the killings were driven by political motives.

According to him, “You have the true herders and farmers who are clashing and you have hidden hostile hands who have crept in under that umbrella to play what the president has described as irresponsible politics.

“This farmers – herders’ clash has been going on for a long time. When I say long time, I mean far long before this administration. Like the president said, the issue is even older than anybody living today.

What you have today are being sponsored because they know security is one of the strongest points of the administration.”
