Former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode has reacted to President Muhammadu Buhari’s appointment by the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) as the leader of its COVID-19 response.
The appointment was made Thursday at the Extraordinary ECOWAS Summit on COVID-19 which was held via teleconferencing under the Chairmanship of Mahamadou Issoufou, President of the Republic of Niger.
Fani-Kayode opposed the appointment, saying that the President was not fit for the job as he can barely manage himself, talk more of 400 million people in the sub-region.
He wrote on his verified Twitter page;
“The greatest mistake that the ECOWAS leaders have made is to appoint @MBuhari as the leader of the fight against Covid 19. This is a cataclysmic error which they will deeply regret”.
“He can barely manage himself & now you ask him to manage a sub-region of 400 million people” he continued.
