Give me the presidency and I will end insecurity in Southeast – Ezekwesili to critics

Former Minister of Education, Obiageli Ezekwesili Former Minister of Education, Obiageli Ezekwesili

A former Minister of Education, Obiageli Ezekwesili has asked supporters of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to hand over the presidency and Commander-In-Chief of the Armed Forces of Nigeria to her.

The controversial Minister says she will tackle the degenerated insecurity situation in the Southeast and other parts of Nigeria if she is handed the presidency

She vowed to put those behind the insecurity situation in the Southeast to shame.

Tweeting, Ezekwesili wrote: “It appears they have once again conferred on me the Constitutional Duties of the @NGRPresident, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces.

“They do so without handing the office to me so I can urgently, decisively and effectively tackle the degenerate state of insecurity in the South East and other parts of the country and permanently put them to shame for their abysmal failure.

“Such duplicity is the typical Modus Operandi of the @OfficialAPCNg @NigeriaGov folks and their Fan Club who never take responsibility for anything but suffer from an obsession to ‘grab power just for the sake of power.’

“When you are ready to hand over formally to me as your Commander-in-Chief of the Nigeria Armed Forces, let me know. Until then, enjoy calling my name in vain.”
