The President broadcast speech was rhetoric – Joseph Gimba

The chairman of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), Taraba state, Joseph Gimba has described the President’s speech as rhetoric.

He stressed that the President’s speech was full of the promises he made to Nigerians over the years without fulfilling them.

Gimba further stressed that for President Buhari not to condole with the families of those who lost their lives at Lekki, Lagos state, during a shooting at the unarmed Nigerian youths shows that he is heartless.

” The speech is full of the old things the president has told Nigerians over the years. The President since last year announced that he has increased the salary of men of the Nigeria Police, but until now nothing has been done.

The President should have first of all condole with the families of the Nigerian youths who lost their lives in Lekki tollgate before any other thing; for him not to do that shows that he is heartless”; Gimba said.
