‘Buhari Is A President Of Chains Not Change’ – Ben Murray-Bruce

The latest to disagree with the President’s submission is Senator Ben Murray-Bruce (PDP, Bayelsa East) who pointed out that the targets of the President’s comments are the same ones who stood in scorching sun during the 2015 Presidential Election to vote him in. He thus posited that all the administration led by President Buhari has done so far is to deliver chains to the people rather than the change and the campaign promises he promised to bring.
Senator Ben Murray-Bruce Condemns President Muhammadu Buhari Over ‘Lazy Nigerian Youths’ Comment, Says He Delivers Chains Instead Of Promises

Backlash over the comment by President Muhammadu Buhari that most Nigerian Youths are lazy and uneducated continue to troop in even almost a week since he made them at the Commonwealth Business Forum in the United Kingdom on Wednesday, last week.
The latest to disagree with the President’s submission is Senator Ben Murray-Bruce (PDP, Bayelsa East) who pointed out that the targets of the President’s comments are the same ones who stood in scorching sun during the 2015 Presidential Election to vote him in.
He thus posited that all the administration led by President Buhari has done so far is to deliver chains to the people rather than the change and the campaign promises he promised to bring.


The lawmaker released a statement recently which was obtained by NIGERIA NEWS. According to the statement: “Instead of finding out why young Nigerian professionals are migrating in droves to countries like Canada, President Buhari calls them lazy.

“The ironic thing is that many of them queued up for hours under hot Savannah sun to vote in a man who promised change but delivered chains!
“There is no way President Buhari, father of the Nigerian nation in every sense of the word, who equally has biological children of his own in the youths age bracket, pass a vote of no confidence on all youths. It can only exist in the imagination of those who play what the President has described as “irresponsible politics” with everything.
“President Buhari has always applauded and celebrated Nigerian youths who excel in different areas of endeavour, from sports to academia, and other realms. And he will continue to do so, because he values the youths, and knows that they are the fulcrum on which the future of the country rests.
“Indeed, every country has its share of idle population, and it is the bounden duty of government at all levels, to create an enabling environment for them to actualize their potentials.
“It is futile for mischief makers to lie in wait, and take a minor part of the words of the President, and turn it into negative commentary, peradventure they could diminish the profile of the President.
“Nigerians across all walks of life know who is serving them faithfully and truly, and they will always reciprocate such fidelity as occasions demand.”
