Nigeria - President Muhammadu Buhari has committed an impeachable offense with the way he is running the government, an ex Nigerian governor has stated.
"The most damnable thing is that there is no government in place. A dictatorship is being run and it is an impeachable offence. How can an elected president be a dictator running government for three months and decide things alone. That is a military dictator. There is even no minister of finance," a former governor of the old Anambra State and a respected leader in the Southeast, Dr Chukwuemeka Ezeife, said in an interview published by The Sun.
He said Buhari's 'excuse' of taking his time to study things before appointing ministers was a lie.
"You can sit here and look for whom to engage in Sokoto. It is not difficult to get competent people from any part of Nigeria. But if you want to decide everything alone, and in the way you like, you can go ahead and do it." he said.
He however said there might not be a timeline in the constitution for the composition of cabinet but said things must be done conventionally.
"The day you become president, you name your ministers within one month, not within two months even. Is there any government which did not form cabinet within three months in the past? Are you saying that one man alone can do it? If one man is doing it and we are not seeing the result, don’t we have right to complain?" he added.
