A daughter of the President, Zahra Buhari-Indimi, says the recent discovery of food items and other COVID-19 palliatives hoarded in warehouses in several states across the country proves that her father, President Muhammadu Buhari is not Nigeria’s problem.
Zahra made her submission in an Instagram post on Sunday.
She wrote, “Now that people confirmed that Buhari distributed enough palliatives nationwide, it is clear Buhari is not our problem.”
Her statement comes after thousands of Nigerians in the last few days plundered warehouses in several states including Lagos, Plateau, Osun, and Kwara in the wake of the COVID-19 protests.
In some instances, COVID-19 palliatives donated by the private sector-led Coalition Against COVID-19 were found in private homes of politicians.
Some of the items include cartons of noodles, sacks of garri, and bags of rice, some of which had spoilt due to poor and prolonged storage.
Several business moguls including industrialist, Aliko Dangote, Mike Adenuga, Femi Otedola, Oba Otudeko, Folorunsho Alakija, Tony Elumelu, and several others had donated over N30 billion in cash and food items to assist federal and state governments in tackling the COVID-19 challenge.
