While speaking on Arise TV, Adesina said the political enemies of President Buhari, particularly members of the opposition party, are the sponsors of the killing machines that have sent many Nigerians to their untimely graves.
He said the various security agencies are currently investigating those behind the killings in the country, warning that once they were identified, they would be dealt with.
“You have the true herders and farmers who are clashing and you have hidden hostile hands who have crept in under that umbrella to play what the president has described as irresponsible politics. This farmers – herders’ clash has been going on for a long time. When I say long time, I mean far long before this administration. Like the president said, the issue is even older than anybody living today. What you have today are being sponsored because they know security is one of the strongest points of the administration. The president said so in a national broadcast. He also said the security agencies are investigating and has warned that once they are identified, they will be dealt with. The intension of the opposition in any democracy is to weaken the incumbent as much as possible and the opposition in Nigeria has identified security as one of the strong points of the Buhari administration. So they decided to go to that area finding the soft under belly and stick a knife into it.”Adesina said the Buhari-led administration has done very well to strengthen the economy and that only people in white collar jobs are the ones losing their jobs in Nigeria..
“Those statistics you have of unemployment are from white collar jobs that is not all that make an economy. We have a record of blue collar jobs. For example, rice farmers, when this administration came were only five million. As at today, they are over 12 million, that is seven million additional rice farmers. When you heard that Nigeria cut rice importation by 90 per cent, it was not just from the blues.” he said
