"DAFT and CLUELESS!" Radio Biafra hits back at Buhari. Recorded voice "REPEATEDLY played on Radio Biafra" that of Sarduana and not Buhari

The Radio Biafra has hit back at General Muhammadu Buhari for alleging that the Biafran radio station has been playing a recorded voice ascribed to Buhari, where he was expressing anti-Igbo sentiments. The Radio Biafra dubbed the statement released by Buhari as a daft and clueless,  as at no time had the radio station claimed the voice was that of Buhari but rather that of Late Ahmadu Bello, the Sarduana of Sokoto and founder of modern day Northern Oligarchy.
A statement released by the Deputy Director of Radio Biafra, Uche Mefor stated: "Daft and clueless! Buhari lied against Radio Biafra instead!! See the reason why----the voice being repeated on radio biafra is that of Sarduana of Sokoto, sir Ahmadu Bello [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WSosECbcmM ] who did not waste time in showing his hatred for people from the old Eastern Region whom he generally categorised as Igbos. He laid the foundation for hate, discrimination, ethnicism and northernisation policy and that is what Buhari is practicing now with his appointments. Nobody ever suggested that it was Buhari's voice or interview with BBC.Wake up Buhari!"




Late yesterday Buhari, irked by the prowess of Radio Biafra, released a statement through his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu describing as “completely false, malicious and slanderous” the purported claim by Radio Biafra that Buhari expressed anti-Igbo sentiments in a recent interview with BBC Hausa Service.

According to Shehu "the voice being ascribed to President Buhari in the recording repeatedly played back by the station was definitely not the President’s voice. The claim that the station got the recording from a BBC interview was also totally untrue.


“No one should be deceived by the pirate radio station’s hate propaganda against the President.

“President Buhari has not had any interview with BBC Hausa Service since his assumption of office as alleged by the agents of disunity behind the pirate radio station’s inflammatory and divisive broadcasts,’’ he added.

Shehu noted that the last interview the President had with the BBC Hausa Service, lasting not more than five minutes, was on the day he was declared winner and given his certificate of return as President-elect by the Independent National Electoral Commission.

However, the voice that has been "repeatedly played on Radio Biafra" was that of Sarduana as shown in the video above. The voice is played to demonstrate how deep the hatred for Biafrans goes among Nigerians. And at no point has the Radio Biafra ascribed the voice to Buhari.
This clearly buttress at best the stupidity of Buhari's handlers who ignore substance to chase shadow or at best gravity of bungling propaganda against Radio Biafra with a phantom issue.
