Its disappointing! Oby Ezekwesili reacts to President Buhari saying he needs to protect his emotions on the missing Chibok girls matter

Former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili, has reacted to President Buhari's comment in his CNN interview where he stated that he has not seen the proof of life video released last month by CNN where 15 of the Chibok girls were recorded by Boko Haram showing they are alive and well. In the interview, President Buhari said he has to protect his own emotions in issues pertaining to the missing girls.
"I haven't seen that video but even if I see it, I will be very careful about showing it to the families. There is no point to deliberately raise hopes of the families if you can't meet them. I saw the families as a group twice. One, they came to visit my wife, two, they came as a group to see me and the less I see them the better for my own emotional balance. I try to imagine y 14 year old daughter, 14-18, missing for more than two years and trying to imagine what condition are they in. A lot of the parents will rather see their grave than imagine the condition they are in now. Its tragic"he said
Ezekwesili feels Buhari's comments are disappointing.

The problem with Buhari is that he's too honest & blunt with the truth.And that is a signal Nigerians aren't used to.We prepare someone who would embellish a lie & present em in the most considerable manner.The previous admin gave us hope that they'll bring back those girls.They promised.They pet.They sugar coated the whole thing even though they knew it was almost impossible to do that.
Buhari on the other hand gave Nigerians hope including me that he's the man for the job.We believed him.But his blatant responses and body language is something we ain't used to.If i were him, I'd say less & do more action.Seems the more he talks, the more he goofs

everyone shud pls shut up. na Buhari time Chibok girls miss? abi make the man turn to girls?

Abdul Adepetu said...

I actually like madam Oby. But please what does she want from Buhari on the missing chibok girls. It's understandable the issue on ground. We have different talking style and approach. Please let's not be passing blames on Buhari for missing girls statement. He has thrown in resources just like the CinC. Just like boys will pay Doctors to take care of there parents and the women will go and seat at the hospital helping out. We have different approach. Appreciate.

At least he's honesrhonest

Sola9ja said...

PMB gave correct and accurate answer, why raising hope, this is serious matter and he was honest enough to compare the situation if his daughter went missing, I think the man PMB is just honest.

Unknown said...

Indeed Nigerians don't lik truth.

I agree with what PMB said. He's just been honest.

I know very well just like every other enlightened person, that you got Pmb's message.

You are just trying to take it out of context. And for what reason, only you madam,

can tell.

Unknown said...

Really buhari is truthful, what happened to I will bring fuel to 40 naira, what happened to there is no subsidy is a scam I can go on on on and on..

Unknown said...

To be honest I will say the same thing, HD said the fact,he said he can't stand it base on his emotional balance haba,what do expect him to say..to lie abi,ilove buhari's honest, he's a man of integrity

Ollie 78 said...

Madam it haf shock ur eye abi? D man no lie abi una wan kill am before im time? Haba

Syd Niggah said...

And this was our minister of education?! Smh.
I'm just glad that we have a president who wouldn't buckle under pressure and remain resolved to make the right decisions.
Emotions can cloud his judgement, and that'll lead to him making irrational decisions like we saw in the past with GEJ who tried to pacify every "crying baby" at the expense of the nations wealth.

Oby sorry, I knew you needed a position...but there's no vacant now. I promise you something comes 2019..but if you insist..I will hand your file over to efcc.

Asb said...

Hmmm... when is all said and done!

She never see anything yet foolish woman

Nelly Uwaifo said...

Oby should exhibit some sense of decorum in addressing our president she has been in the corridor of power before and knows how things work,she should not be carried away by fake emotions or weep more than the berieve we all feel the pains of the chibok girls it is not enough for her to disparage our president.The office of the President deserves some respect please.
