Buhari Reveals He Is One Of The Unhappiest Leaders In The World

Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari says the spike in activities of bandits and kidnappers across the country has made him one of the unhappiest leaders in the world.

Some states, including Zamfara and Kaduna, have come under repeated attacks by suspected hoodlums.

The attacks have left many dead with many properties destroyed.

Some protesters marched to the presidential villa in Abuja on Saturday over the persistent killings in Zamfara.

The president spokesman, Garba Shehu in a statement, Buhari said his mind is constantly preoccupied with the insecurity challenges in the country.

He described as “ridiculous”, claims that he is indifferent to the incidents.

He explained that as human, he understands the pains of the victims of the attacks.

“How can I be happy and indifferent to the senseless killings of my fellow citizens by bandits?,” Buhari asked.

“I am human and I understand the pains of the victims and their families who have been traumatized and impoverished by constant ransom demands by bandits.

“The politicisation of tragedy reveals the darkest sides of our primitive politics. Almost every week, I summon my security chiefs to get an update on the strategies being devised to defeat these mass murderers.

“There is no issue that dominates my mind every 24 hours like security because, as an elected president, protecting the citizens of my country is one of the primary functions of my administration.

“It is, therefore, ridiculous to suggest that I am indifferent to these killings.

The president added that he would do whatever it takes to ensure the country’s security system confronts the perpetrators of the crimes.
