President Muhammadu Buhari has been advised to act wisely in the interest of peace, to avert any post-election crisis in Nigeria.

 

Mr Enuma Okoli, an author, and President Buhari’s personal biographer, who authored the book ‘General Muhammad Buhari: Principled and Transparent,’ made the call in a press statement he made available to journalists in Awka, Anambra State.

 

Okoli, who described Buhari as a man of peace also recalled how he (Buhari) took time to speak to him on the sacrifices he made to ensure Nigeria remained one during the civil war and therefore urged him to take steps to avert any breakdown of the country.

According to Okoli, he is forced to give this advice to the president based on the grudges of a section of the country over their dissatisfaction with the presidential election result announced on Wednesday morning.

 

Noting that there is tension in the country, he enjoined the President: “Please call an urgent meeting of the stakeholders immediately and arrest the situation. Many Nigerians have rejected this election. Please do something about it.”

 

Okoli who further noted that there may be an escalation if the issue is left unattended to said further: “You had personally told me how you and your colleagues fought to maintain the unity of Nigeria. Sir, these years of suffering should not go down the drain because of a single election.”
