Things must really be bad as Northern Nigerian vampires move against Buhari. Buhari’s economic policies lack direction – Junaid Mohammed

 Things must really be bad as Northern Nigerian vampires move against Buhari. Buhari’s economic policies lack direction – Junaid Mohammed


Northern Oligarchy vampires are getting infuriated by Buhari. Possibly because of his bungling that has contributed heightened tempo of Biafra restoration. A former member of the Nigerian House of Representatives in the second republic, Dr. Junaid Mohammed, has described President Muhammadu Buhari’s management of the economy as confused and completely without any sense of direction.


Mohammed, who is a notorious Northern Oligarch with in born hatred for Biafrans, noted that Buhari spent a long time before constituting his cabinet but ended up creating meaningless ministries like Ministry of Power, Works and Housing as well as Ministry of Petroleum Resources.

According to the Russian-trained medical doctor, the Ministry of Power, Works and Housing is a bundle of contradictions because “it has added no value to the sectors that it is supposed to superintend.”

“The power sector is in the worst crisis in the last 25 years. The public works department is in complete shambles. The renewed emphasis on housing is a way for the minister and his cronies to make money. It will not solve the lingering housing crisis in Nigeria,’’ he added.

The former legislator also took a swipe at the president over the Ministry of Petroleum Resources.

“There is the additional scandalous conundrum, whereby one individual is the de facto CEO of NNPC, which is a civil service appointment.

“The same person is also the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, which is a political appointment,’’ he pointed out.

Mohammed further said that Buhari is the Minister of Petroleum Resources only in name “because he doesn’t run the ministry on a day to day basis, which is the job of a Minister and GMD of NNPC.”

According to him, Buhari’s perception about how to run the ministry and the petroleum sector generally is “so rustic that he has no value to add to that important sector of national life.”

The social critic, however, gave kudos to the president’s war on corruption, adding that: “Before the coming of this administration, corruption was and still is the number one problem of the country.”
