Senator Hanga, former close ally of Buhari, says he is Nigeria’s worst president ever

Rufai Hanga, Senator-elect for Kano Central on the platform of New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, and pioneer chairman of the defunct Congress for Progressives Change, CPC, has described President Muhammadu Buhari with the harshest of words.

Hanga, in a no-holds-barred interview on Trust TV Daily Politics, said that Buhari was the worst president Nigeria had ever had.

He said Buhari was an abject failure who was simply incapable.

Hanga stated this during an interview on Trust TV’s Daily Politics.

Hanga, according to a report, was one of the foundation members of the CPC and provided a building in Utako, Abuja, used by the party as its headquarters.

However, after Hanga lost out in his bid for the governorship ticket of Kano State to Colonel Jafar Isa (retd), he fell out with Buhari and eventually evicted the party from his Utako property.

Speaking in an interview with Trust TV, Senator Hanga said: “Buhari was posing himself as a Messiah, and unfortunately, that was untrue. The Trustworthy (Mai Gaskiya) is the best nickname he would like to have, but he is not. Look at what he did. He surrounds himself with people that have fat files with EFCC and those that he used to abuse before.

“Before I believed in Buhari, but now I have seen the right thing. I now know better. He is a total failure. He will sleep confidently in Daura because he doesn’t know what is happening. He has no capacity. Buhari has no capacity.

“If somebody would perform the way he did, if somebody would take the country to where it is now and continue to advocate that he is the best President Nigeria has ever had… That is what he has been saying himself that he performed more than all the former leaders.

“To me, he is a decimal failure compared to the rest,’ Senator Hanga said in describing Buhari as Nigeria’s worst president.” (Daily Trust)
