Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, says Nigeria needs a leader with an iron fist like his principal, President Muhammadu Buhari.
The presidential aide also said Buhari won’t allow criminals and insurrectionists from any part of the country to destroy Nigeria.
He further stated this in a piece on Friday titled, ‘I Suddenly Remembered Why I Fell In Love With The President’.
“The man we fell in love with is of iron and steel, one ready and willing to knock sense into contumacious heads, whipping everyone into line. And being kind to us in the process. A kind bully, if you like the oxymoron,” he described Buhari.
The President had on Tuesday, condemned the attacks on police stations, prisons and offices of the Independent National Electoral Commission, especially in the South-East, warning those supporting insurrection and violence in the country.
Buhari had said and tweeted that some of those misbehaving today are too young to be aware of the destruction and loss of lives that happened during the Civil War, adding that they will be treated in the language they understand.
The President’s tweet riled some persons who felt he was insensitive to have made an analogy of the civil war. His critics subsequently reported the tweet to Twitter and the microblogging site later deleted the post with a comment, “This Tweet violated the Twitter Rules”.
