Wole Soyinka says he doesn’t believe Buhari is the one in charge of the Nation

Renowned Nigerian Novelist, Wole Soyinka has said he does not believe President Buhari is the one piloting the affairs of the nation.

The Nobel laureate who has never hidden his dissatisfaction about the state of the nation, made this known in a recent interview with PlusTV Africa.

Reacting to the open letter the former military administrator to Kano state, Umar Dangiwa wrote to the President in which he accused him of appointing only persons from his region into his cabinet, Soyinka said;

“First of all, I was appalled by the silence that followed this revelation. I think those who are responsible for this criminal lopsidedness should be punished. It is not sufficient just to discuss it. It’s criminal.

“I have said this before. I don’t believe there is really anybody in charge in Aso Rock. I’m sorry to say this. I’ve been studying the trend over the past year and a half and I believe this president is not in charge of this nation, in so many aspects and directions. I’m convinced he’s not really and totally with it.

“It’s so serious. It is not the fact alone, we know the history of this. We know what it has caused the nation and we know it isn’t over yet. And you say are launching an enquiry. That’s not enough. This man is not in charge.”
