A former member of the Senate, who represented Kogi West, Dino Melaye, has called on the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), to address Nigerians, especially on the issue of security in the nation.

Melaye spoke Friday while featuring on AIT Focus Nigeria programme monitored by The PUNCH.

He stated, “In of interaction, we voted for President Muhammadu Buhari, not Garba Shehu. We want to hear ‘president said’ not ‘presidency said’.

“President Buhari needs to speak to us directly, he needs to commune with Nigeria, he needs to converse with the media.”

The former senator stated that the solution to Nigeria’s insecurity is for the National Assembly to become “born again” and impeach the President.

He said, “The solution to this problem is simple, either the National Assembly become born again and impeach the President or the President agree that he is medically, physically, and politically incapacitated and then hand in the towel.”

Melaye, who is also a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, believed that after the impeachment of the President, the country could go on to reform its security architecture, hold conferences, and start finding ways to get out of the security crisis.

What do you want him to say? Does he understands what is going on in Nigeria? We made the worse political mistake in the history of human existence in 2015. We need to bear the burdens together.

Abi oop... I just tire for them

the president is dead

Who's the presidency?

I no wan talk wetin dey my mind...make I just respect myself just

Oya Dino, tell us wetin you know. Leave parable.

Dont mind the onuamu called garba shehu.

This one was defeated in the Senate and gubernatorial ambition before delving into a failed Nolywood career.

Talk of failure, you can't miss out the name Dino Melaye

The president is media shy.

This perhaps will be the first regime in recent time where a group of unelected people hiding under the tag 'Presidency' rule the people via proxy.

Buhari is now too old/weak to lead. He may have even ed on. I believe all the secrecy in this government clearly points out that all is not well with Buhari.

Whoever the people are seeing is not Buhari. Its a body double or the old Buhari comes out once in a while to create the Impression of being alive and in charge.

Lessons were sure learnt with Yaraduas demise. Never again, they would have said.

Dino please calm down let Nigerians themselves confess what they are going through with their mouth.

So, this is all you have to say about your President addressing you amidst widespread killings going on in your country?

I weep for you.

Damnnn niggarrrr
Isoright

Exactly

Werey

Which Kin useless address who him address epp.abeg make e go sit down

Since Buhari got reelected, I have never seen him having a press conference, with journalists

Only edited and scripted shits videos

U mean recorded address that's poorly edited ? Please he should keep it

he is keeping malice with the citizens

There is no need, even Buhari is taken instructions from the presidency.

Buharia has never addressed Nigerians and will never address Nigerians.
He can only read out newspapers...

As funny as this sound, this is pivotal, in a
sane country the president ought to have done this without been coerced to do it

yes

Lol, when has Buhari ever addressed the nation? If you force him, he will just record a speech and post on NTA.

Garba is actually the President by proxy.

Dbarrzx:
Dino and address are like 5&6. Will Buhari addressing Nigerians change anything. Let us pray this country survive his tenure.

Keep praying, instead of you to call out who is suppose to make things work.

donnie:
What do you want to do with the address?

Soak it and drink it with garri.... Official zone-B
