Former military head of state and National Leader of the Congress for Progressive Change, Maj-Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd), has come under flaks from the presidency over his  comments on the attack on the Emir of Kano, Ado Bayero.
The presidency described his comment as “irresponsible, reckless and opportunistic.”
It also cautioned against politicizing the attack on the revered traditional ruler, explaining that the attempt by Buhari, his political party, CPC and the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) is irresponsible.
Information Nigeria reports that Buhari and CPC  had condemned the attack on the Emir of Kano, stating that “the portent of this latest security challenge is: the Nigerian state is not just under an ominous cloud of insecurity but all the citizens (under the nation’s space) are also victims”.
