Nigerians were warned about Buhari – Former Ambassador, Farounbi

A former Nigerian Ambassador to the Philippines, Yemi Farounbi has disclosed that President Muhammadu Buhari is God’s punishment for Nigeria.

Farounbi who is a veteran broadcast journalist also said he was not surprised that this is happening because Nigerians were warned during the 2014/2015 presidential campaign about President Buhari’s past.

Farounbi who made these revelations while featuring on a live weekly radio show in Ibadan explained that imprisonment of politicians was one of the bad sores inflicted by the president while a military Head Of State.

In his words, “In 2014/2015 when we were campaigning, when Nigerians decided to accept the campaign of one chance, they were warned of the history of Muhammadu Buhari and how he imprisoned many politicians including Chief Obafemi Awolowo.

God is a wonderful being. He decided to use Buhari to punish Nigerians for their evil deeds and Nigerians deserve these punishments.”

While reiterating that he has optimism that Nigeria will be better, he accused corrupt politicians of not looking forward to seeing a better Nigeria.

Ambassador Farounbi, however, stated that Buhari can still redeem his image by becoming Nigeria’s best president if he could sincerely restructure the country into six geographical zones.

This, he said, will help to strengthen the country’s economy and political space.
