Former President of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Ayo Oritsejafor, has said he warned Nigerians ahead of the 2015 general election that the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari would fail, but his concerns were ignored.
Speaking on Channels TV’s Politics Today on Monday, Oritsejafor said he foresaw challenges under the Buhari government and had expressed his concerns before the administration took office.
“In 2014, I tried to warn this nation of the direction it was going,” he said.
“I would say it plain, when the Buhari government was getting ready to come in, I knew that it was going to be a mess, and I think from there, I don’t know what to call where we are now, but it has grown worse.”
The cleric said the country’s current situation had compelled him to return to public commentary on governance and leadership issues after years of relative silence.
