The retired deputy Inspector General of Police (DIG), Parry Osayande on Thursday, joined the Northern leaders to ask for the resignation of President Mohammadu Buhari.
Osayande’s call is in the line of the Northern group calling for the resignation of the President for his inep handling of the security situations in the country.
He stated that he backed the call by a Northern Group that President Buhari should resign haven failed to secure the lives of Nigerians.
“Somebody is talking about interim Government; is there any Government here? In any case why can’t the President resign if he cannot carry out his functions?” He queried.
Osayande called on the Nigerian youths to wake up and dethrone bad leadership with their votes.
He said the coming 2023 general election was the right time for Nigerian youths who constitute majority of the voting population to vote the right people cashing in on the provisions of the new Electoral Act which tried to reduce the possibility of rigging.
Speaking to journalists in Benin City on the state of the nation, the former Chairman of Police Service Commission, said; “All the politicians are jokers and they are taking us for a ride.
“It is high time the youth which form the majority should forget about money and use their votes with the improvements made by the new electoral law because by bringing in technology, rigging will not be as easy as it used to be therefore the youths have a more formidable weapon to use in the new Electoral Act. Vote the charlatans out of office.
“‘So if the Government is not sufficiently responsible to come and carry out the functions defined by the constitution then vote it out.”
The former Police boss, condemned the recent presidential pardon given to some convicted persons particularly former Governors Joshua Dariye of Plateau State and Jolly Nyame of Taraba state.
According to him, granting pardon to Dariye and Nyame was criminal conspiracy.
“That (pardon) is absolute rubbish. How can you do a thing like that? Somebody who has stolen public funds, people are dying and then you say you have pardoned such a person?
“What about somebody who was dying of hunger and stole chicken to go and feed his family and he was given nine months imprisonment, was such a person pardoned?
“This is criminal conspiracy; it is not done in a civilized society they have taken us about 200 years backward.” He stated.
