The Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria, HURIWA has on Tuesday urged the President Muhammadu Buhari to make sure he resigns right away if the job is tough for him.
HURIWA had made this announcement in a statement while calling on Buhari to resign to minimise the damage his “crass incompetence’ would cost the country if he stayed on till May 29th, 2023.
Africa Daily News, New York reports that Buhari had, in a statement signed by his spokesman, Garba Shehu, described his seven years in office as “tough”.

The president, who said he was “eager to go”, disclosed this when he received some governors of the All Progressives Congress (APC), legislators, and political leaders at his residence in Daura, Katsina State, during the Eid-el-Kabir celebrations.
The statement by HURIWA partly read, “Following the admission by President Muhammadu Buhari that the Presidency is tough and that he is eager to go, a call has gone to President Muhammadu Buhari, from the Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria to be honest enough to resign now to minimise the damage his crass incompetence and gross dereliction of duty would cost the Country if he stayed on till May 29th 2023.”
In another report, The Anglican Communion in Calabar, Cross River State, has openly called for the immediate resignation of President Muhammadu Buhari and his government over their non-challance over Tinubu’s choice of a Muslim Vice President under the APC party.
The church while reacting to the Muslim-Muslim ticket had also expressed some deep disappointment at and outrightly rejected the national party, the APC, Muslim-Muslim’s presidential ticket for next year’s election while insisting that the secularity of Nigeria must be respected.
The church’s position was however expressed by the Bishop of Calabar Diocese, Rev Professor Nneoyi Egbe during the second session of the eleventh synod of the diocese.
“President Muhammadu Buhari and his government is deceitful, and insensitive to the plight of Nigerians and the heightened insecurity and should resign immediately even though it is not in the spirit of Nigerian politicians to do so.
“The government has no moral rectitude. They have disappointed Nigerians. How can they be so insensitive and comfortable with the way things are going in Nigeria in recent times. They are a complete failure and their governance is likened to witchcraft,” he said.
“This government thrives on lies. They said Nigeria is very safe. What a fat lie. There’s security yet people cannot travel freely, sleep, people are kidnapped and outrageous ransoms are paid and people are killed wantonly and government merely sends condolence messages.”
