Tell Nigerians if Buhari is dead or alive – Giwa begs Pastor Adeboye

The Senior Pastor of Awaiting The Second Coming Of Christ Ministry, Adewale Giwa, on Monday, begged the General Overseer of Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye to tell Nigerians whether or not President Muhammadu Buhari is alive or dead.

The cleric also urged the service chiefs to cover their faces in shame over the abduction of more than 300 schoolboys in Kankara, Kastina State.

In a statement on Monday, Giwa, in his reaction to the ugly development begged “Pastor Adeboye and those who supported the APC to win the 2015 election to tell Nigerians whether or not President Muhammadu Buhari is alive or dead.”

Recall that more than 300 schoolboys are still missing after gunmen attacked a secondary school in Kankara, a town in Nigeria’s northwestern Katsina state, authorities said.

Attackers on motorcycles stormed the all-boys Government Science School late on Friday and engaged security forces in a fierce gun battle, forcing hundreds of students to flee and hide in the surrounding forest.

However, Pastor Giwa wondered why “the nation would have a president who could not lay his life for his citizens by protecting them.”

The cleric added, “By now, nobody should have advised the service chiefs to resign before they do so.”

Meanwhile, President Buhari checked up on his cows in his hometown, Daura, Katsina State on Monday, despite showing defiance amidst calls for him to visit the school where 600 students were kidnapped over the weekend.

A video obtained by Sahara Reporters showed the president visiting his cows and in Daura on Monday afternoon.

The president had rejected calls to visit Kankara, home to the high school that was raided by bandits, instead choosing to send a Federal government delegation from Abuja, the nation’s capital.

Kankara is about 190km (a two and half hours drive) by road from Daura while Abuja is some 384km away.

The president has faced criticism for his failure to show empathy repeatedly during a time of grief for Nigerians.

Two weeks ago, the president rejected similar calls to visit Zabarmari, the community that witnessed the massacre of rice farmers by members of jihadist Boko Haram sect.
