IJAW national leader, Chief Edwin Kiagbodo Clark, yesterday in his country home in Kiagbodo, Delta State, faulted the call by Gen. Danjuma.
Clark said Danjuma, whom he said he respects so much, was in bad taste.
According to him, several Northern leaders, including the APC presidential candidate, “Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, Keita, Ciroma and several others” had threatened to make that there would be no Nigeria if a northerner was not elected president in 2015 and that they would make the country ungovernable for Jonathan.
“These statements were made by people well known to Danjuma and since then, the problem of Boko Haram has been escalating,” he said.
Danjuma should have the courage to condemn utterances of some of his friends and former colleagues in the army.”
The Ijaw leader also used the occasion to urged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) “to disqualify Buhari from the presidential race for lying under oath.”
He said the recent comment by Buhari that his papers were with INEC was suspicious, asking, “When did he submit the them?”
“If he submitted them after the closing date, then there must be something going on between Buhari and INEC and particularly Prof (Attahiru) Jega.
“Why did INEC accept those certificates now? Which means they have been communicating from time to time,” Clark said.
