| Biafra and Turkey relationship: Nigerians Blast Buhari for lobbying Turkish President with a perfunctory congratulatory message |
The relationship currently being forged by Biafrans with the Turkish government has forced 'General' Muhammadu Buhari to send a hasty congratulatory message to the Turkish President, Recep Tayyip Erdogan for his foresight in conducting a referendum where Turkish people were given the chance to make a change in their constitution.
This ill-thought out message runs contrary to Buhari's vehement stance against a referendum for Biafra Republic or even calling for a Sovereign National Conference where Nigerians will be given the opportunity to decide their future.
According to a statement issued by Buhari’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr Femi Adesina, in Abuja on Monday said Buhari particularly congratulated President Erdogan for his foresight. Buhari commended Erdogan for his maturity in leading his people to the polls to decide on the future of leadership for the country that would further deepen peace and stability.
According to him, the referendum showcases the democratic credentials of the country and reflects a willingness of the Turkish people to live together and jointly pursue a better future. Erdogan won 51.3 per cent of the votes in a referendum on Sunday to grant him sweeping powers in the biggest overhaul of modern Turkish politics. However, opposition parties said the exercise was marred by irregularities, adding that they would challenge its result. “Turkey’s mainly Kurdish southeast and its three main cities, including the capital Ankara and the largest city Istanbul, looked set to vote No, after a bitter and divisive campaign,’’ a local newspaper reported on Sunday.
However, many Nigerians have responded, branding Buhari a hypocirte who suppresses democratic process in Nigeria:
Some selected comments are shown below:
ONLY A CATTLE FROM DAURA COULD BE SUCH A HYPOCRITICAL BUFFOON.
Erdogan thinks positive for Biafra remember?
ZOOMASTER is congratulating another Man for carrying out a referendum, while pissing on anyone who mentions referendum in his own KINGDOM.
WHAT A FUCKING MORON.
What is the relevance of the congratulatory message, when this same government oppose intellectual and social arguments about the future of this country?
Buhari is a shameless hypocrite
That is hypocrisy of the highest order! An inherent Fascist who despises democratic processes like referendum is demonstrating his ignorance and apathy by congratulating Erdogan for successfully conducting a referendum.
Buhari,
When will the people and government of Turkey and indeed the whole world also Congratulate you on the successful conclusion of the BIAFRAN SOVEREIGNTY REFERENDUM?
[...Biafra reloading]
Soon and very soon. A golden opportunity to repair a damaged name. The earlier the better.
The congratulatory message is utterly irrelevant and useless.
It is very provocative to any decent minded Nigerian.
The congratulatory message is coming from a spokesman that want to be relevant by all means.
What a blunder. Is that referendum not dictated by erdogan ? Besides, a president like Buhari who can't allow a referendum or confab report implemented in his country, is congratulating another! Hypocrisy of the highest.
It is hypocrisy at its best.
Buahri is a huge joke. He was the first past leader in Nigeria to boycott Oputa panel that was put in place to reconcile Nigerians after June 12 troubles. Again the idiot refused to allow Nigerians discuss or accept the outcome of their own National conference. He is always the first to congratulate responsible people for their achievements in their own country while he is overseeing the killings of innocent Nigerians by his own kinsmen for cows to asses grassland. Buhari is a real sub-human. Simply mundane
Negodi buhari na Ekene Turkey maka referendum nke ha ma na egbu ndi nke biafra.
Mgbo tipia buhari isi
Eke tijie kwa ya onu! Buhari bu onye iru abuo!
"The President commended Erdogan for his maturity in leading his people to the polls to decide on the future of leadership for the country that would further deepen peace and stability."
Did you hear that coming from a president vehemently opposed to a referendum or restructuring that could usher in peace for millions of people. This man want to die as the most hated Nigerian president ever.
That's actually the handiwork of Femi, Buhari did not issue any congratulatory message, Femi is just trying to be relevant since his boss is nowhere to be found.
I think you are right. Buhari doesn't know anything about that Press Statement. He is just somewhere breathing in and out around Aso-Rock.
Buhari's government is a joke-- nothing but a joke! How many world leaders are congratulating Turkey for a simple referendom? Did Buhari congratulate UK for Brexit? Does this mean Buhari is in support of referendom here at home too especially for those regions that no longer want to be part of Nigeria state? Jobless government!!
51.3% votes not good enough for an incumbent..
Suspect foul play
Well said, Sai Baba Buhari
Buhari, you sent congratulatory message to Turkey while you have blindly refused to keep any democratic norm. I think something is wrong with you.
