The presidency has reacted to the February 5th proposed
Nationwide protest which singer, 2face Idibia and other
celebrities have come out to support.
Speaking in an interview with Lagos Talk 91.3fm, Senior
Special Assistant to President Buhari on Media and Publicity,
Femi Adesina, said those who are calling for the protest are
people who supported the last government and are still
pained that they lost the last election.
"This is a country of about 180 million people. It is
impossible for 180 million people to think the same
way. Yoruba has a saying that is you all sleep and put
your head in the same direction, then you are all
foolish because you would be breathing in one
another's mouth and lungs. Dont forget the last
election and how it went. Somebody scored 12.5
million votes, another scored about 15 million votes.
There are some people who are still in that election
mode. They have not gotten out of it and till today,
they are still living and "rheumatisizing" about the
past. What they don't know is that that past is gone
and gone forever. Majority of those calling for the
protest are still in election mode. Majority of them are
people that have resolved not to see anything good in
this administration simply because the man they
wanted lost at the polls"he said
