Nigerians in the United Kingdom have denied protesting against the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.
These
Nigerians under the aegis of the UK chapter of the Nigerians in
Diaspora Monitoring Group (NDMG) said media reports that there was a
protest against President Buahri are false.
In a statement signed by the UK
coordinator of the group, Adeka Onyilo, NDMG said some mischievous
Nigerians in the UK are working towards recruiting uniformed persons who
would embarrass the Nigerian government.
Onyilo said these individuals are aimed at tainting the image of the anti-corruption fight of President Buhari in Nigeria.
He
said these Nigerians also hope to use the recruits gathered for
anti-corruption crusade that could help corrupt individuals escape
justice in Nigeria.
Onyilo however said that no member of the NDMG any any other groups to the best of his knowledge stage a protest in the UK.
He said: "The group has confirmed that Mr President is not in any critical condition that calls for Nigerians to worry."
"The NDMG believes in and will
continue to identify with the laudable achievements of President Buhari
especially in the areas of fighting corruption and defeating Boko Haram
terrorism and routing the group from Nigeria’s soil," Onyilo said.
He added that the pockets of isolated attacks in the North-East are challenges also faced across the globe.
He said: "To
this ends, the NDMG (UK) wishes to salute the efforts of the Nigerian
Army which led other security partners to flush the insurgents out of
their stronghold."
No amount of honour is enough for the
Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Buratai and the gallant troops
under his command that performed the magic that has brought so much
honour to the country abroad.
"To
the extent that the people are celebrating the peace that has returned
to their various communities across the north east and local government
elections holding in all the wards of Yobe State on Saturday February
11, 2017, we hereby declare that there are indisputable facts that the
Nigerian Military have delivered and must be commended."
Onyilo warned those attempting tarnish the image of Nigeria to have a rethink and desist from such.
