Adamu Garba, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has urged the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) members not to interfere with President Bola Tinubu’s ability to fulfil his primary responsibility to Nigeria.
Garba claimed that without Nigeria, the ECOWAS bloc was a hollow shell and that ECOWAS was enticing Tinubu to join them in their failings and those of their French overlords.
The APC leader urged ECOWAS members to return home and tidy their homes in a message on his social media page on Saturday.
In addition, Garba charged that some ECOWAS members were undermining Nigeria’s efforts while the latter was fighting and risking its life for ECOWAS.
He wrote, “While we are fighting and sticking our whole neck in the name of ECOWAS, the same member states are betraying our efforts right within the folks.
“Abeg ECOWAS should stop distracting our President. They should let him focus on delivering his core mandate to Nigeria. We Nigerians trust and believe in our President’s capacity to do the right things for our country. We cannot save former failed Niger leaders and their colonial members from their obvious failures.
“The so-called ECOWAS block are empty shell without Nigeria. They are trying to lure our President to help them in their failures and that of their French masters, while we have a lot to do in Nigeria and we need our President to focus on our country.
“They should all go back to their home countries and clean their houses and leave us alone. We have a lot to do in Nigeria and we need 8 unceasing years of President Tinubu to help us fix things up in Nigeria. This is our priority.”
His comments come as the President Bola Tinubu led ECOWAS continues to explore diplomatic measures to return Niger tp democratic rule.
