In other news, Nigerian activist Omoyele Sowore has issued a scathing response to the passing of former President Muhammadu Buhari.
Buhari, who died on July 13 at a London clinic, was remembered by Sowore not with praise, but with strong criticism.
In his reaction, Sowore highlighted what he described as grave injustices and failings associated with Buhari’s leadership. He emphasized that individuals who ruled with tyranny should not be mourned, asserting that the former president’s legacy was marked by oppression and hardship rather than progress.
His words …
“Muhammadu Buhari slaughtered hundreds of Shiites, men, women, and even children.
He ordered soldiers of the Nigerian Army to open fire on peaceful #EndSARS protesters waving the Nigerian flag.
He “disappeared” Dadiyata.
He ordered the massacre of young Southeasterners whom he branded IPOB.
He disobeyed court orders, jailed critics arbitrarily, destroyed the economy, and ruined everything he touched.
And now, because he’s dead, some people with selective memory want us to mourn or worship him?
Shameful.
NO, we do not mourn tyrants. We remember their victims.
NO, We do not mourn tyrants. We remember their victims. @muhammadubuhari Had No Soul”
