GOVERNOR Samuel Ortom of Benue State has described Nigerians still supporting President Buhari as deaf and dumb.
Ortom, through his Commissioner for Information, Culture and Tourism, Michael Inelagwu, yesterday, said these Nigerians are just like Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity to President Muhammadu Buhari, Garba Shehu, who can’t see anything wrong with Buhari.
Inelagwu who was responding to Shehu’s criticism of Ortom on Tuesday where he (Shehu) said the Governor was a disaster, called on the President’s media aide to bury his head in shame as majority of Nigerians have been regretting voting for Buhari and the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
“Only Nigerians who are deaf like Garba Shehu and those in the Presidency can not hear the cries of citizens who are lamenting the security and economic crisis in the country.
“Only dumb Nigerians like Garba Shehu are still supporting President Muhammadu Buhari’s government,” Inelagwu said at the press conference.
“It will interest Shehu to know that it is not only Governor Samuel Ortom that regrets voting Buhari as President in 2015.
“Majority of Nigerians, including his die-hard supporters in 2015 and 2019 do and it is only those who are deaf, probably like Shehu, that cannot hear the loud cry by Nigerians to be rescued by the PDP from APC’s mismanagement of Nigeria’s political leadership since 2015.
“Nigeria has had enough of failed politicians and will be too glad to see one of them, President Muhammadu Buhari, leave office next year.”
