The Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Middle Belt Forum (MBF), Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA) and others have described the statement by president Muhammadu Buhari that governing Nigeria is a tough job and he cannot wait to finish his tenure on may 29, 2023, to retire to his Daura, Katsina state home, as confession that he has been overwhelmed.
Buhari told a gathering of businessmen and civil society organizations at a dinner in honour of the 2022 committee of business, political, media and civil society leaders, at the presidential villa that he looked forward to when his tenure would end, and that he would also be leaving a legacy of a united, peaceful, and prosperous nigeria with 24 years of uninterrupted democracy.
Huriwa, civil rights advocacy group, called president Buhari to resign immediately if the job was tough for him, to minimise the damage his incompetence would cost the country if he stayed on till may 29th 2023
