The Coalition of Northern Groups on Wednesday said that Nigerians deserved an apology from President Muhammadu Buhari and not appreciation for dragging the country to a desperate situation.
The group, in a statement by its spokesman, Abdul-Azeez Suleiman, urged the President to own up on his inadequacies and take steps to address national grievances.
It said, “We submit that instead of just sitting back to thank Nigerians for not joining the overthrow plan, President Buhari should rather sincerely apologise to the nation by reflecting on how he dragged the country into such a desperate situation, own up to his inadequacies and take genuine steps to address the mounting national grievances.
“Unless this is done, with the growing angry mood that pervades the entire country, the likelihood of a more serious dissent remains imminent.
Buhari, while reacting to the aborted #RevolutionNow protest on Monday, thanked Nigerians for refusing to join the protest. Describing it as victory for democracy.
