According to him, it will be a disaster that will lead to the break-up of the country.
Ayu said: “I have no personal quarrel with President Buhari or all the people working with him in the villa. In fact, some of them are my friends like the Chief of Staff, Professor Gambari.
“I respect him, he’s a friend of mine for years, but he’s in the wrong government. Why should a decent Nigerian like him be doing there?”
He observed that the administration has destroyed the quality of life in the country through nepotism and excessive borrowings, which he said will constitute a burden to generations to come.
The incoming party boss stated: “What is it that APC as a government has done wrong? For example, they are destroying the quality of life of this country, dividing our people by nepotism, they are borrowing money heavily, decreasing the lives of Nigerians and generations to come will be paying off those debts. They are not investing that money into any productive venture.
“Nigeria seems to have the worst currency in Africa. See Somalia that’s a fail state, is doing better than Nigeria. Our currency is in a free fall. That is because we are an import-dependent economy. The quality of lives of Nigerians is going down.
“You have the duty to educate Nigerians that eight more years of this government will cause complete disaster for the country. It will lead to the breakup of this country and everything should be done to educate Nigerian to democratically remove this government because they are the biggest cancer affecting Nigeria today at every level even their governors.”
The former Senate president berated the Governor of Yobe state, Mala Mai Buni, for abandoning the state in favour of the office of the chairman of the ruling party’s national caretaker committee, and permanently residing in Abuja, saying that it shows the lack of seriousness in the APC
