Nigerians living in the United Kingdom trooped out again on Saturday in continuation of their #HarassBuhariOutOfLondon rally to protest against the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari who is in London on medical tourism .
Carrying various placards, the demonstrators besieged the Buhari’s residence in Abuja House.
The protesters chanted solidarity songs and screaming “Go back home, Buhari” intermittently in front of the residence located at 2 Campden Hill, Kensington, London W8 7AD.
The British press was also on hand to cover the protest, which was still ongoing at the time of filing this report.
The rally was held in strict compliance with COVID-19 protocols with protesters massing in groups of six.
Convener of the rally, Reno Omokri described the president as “most irresponsible.”
“He left his country on the day resident doctors began a strike and came to the UK to take care of his own health. He has been in office for over 5 years, and he is yet to initiate, start and complete even one hospital. Will Boris Johnson fail to build hospitals for the British then run to Nigeria to treat himself?”
“Buhari has budgeted over ₦10 billion Naira for the Aso Rock State House Clinic in the five years he has been in office. Is that not enough money to build a hospital and train doctors that can treat him and other Nigerians? Yet, his own wife said that the clinic can’t even provide ordinary paracetamol. Google it”.
Continuing, Omokri added that “when Buhari’s son, Yusuf, was injured in an accident, we prayed for him to get well. I prayed for him. How did this man reward us? He sent soldiers to Lekki to kill peaceful, unarmed #EndSARS protesters. These are the children of the men and women who prayed for his son.”
“Muhammadu Buhari is not running a government. He is running a criminal enterprise. He killed peaceful, unarmed #EndSARS protesters asking for good governance, and now he is in London to secure his life and enjoy the benefits of British good governance? Send the coward back home to fix the mess he created,” he stated.
