$30bn Loan: Stop Arming Buhari Critics - Group To Sanusi

A Buhari Media Support Group, BMSG, has admonished the Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, to stop arming those working against the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government with his consistent criticisms of the current government.

BMSG made the remark while reacting to Sanusi’s recent attack on Buhari’s plan to borrow the sum of $30bn from foreign nations and financial institution.

Recall that the monarch had recently lashed out at the Buhari-led government, saying no country or international financial institution will lend Nigeria $30bn at this point in time.

In a statement by its Chairman, Mallam Muhammad Labbo, BMSG said the “Emir Sanusi should not give ammo to the President’s opponents to undermine the efforts of the government in the implementation of its change agenda.

“He should rather, subscribe to the age-old code of ethics of the traditional institution where emirs are mostly seen and hardly heard, instead of being constantly unduly flippant in order not to bring disrespect to the stool he occupies”.

Labbo said Sanusi needs, “to exercise restraint in his frequent attacks on the policies of the Federal Government in order not to give cynics the wrong signal to undermine the government’s efforts towards finding solutions to the myriad of problems facing the country”.

It warned Sanusi against, “being constantly unduly flippant in order not to bring disrespect to the stool he occupies”.
