”Appointing Buhari As Champion For COVID-19 Response Is A Mistake- Femi Fani-Kayode Tells ECOWAS

Former Minister for Aviation Femi Fani-Kayode has come out to condem the decision of the Economic Community Of West African State (ECOWAS) to appoint president muhammadu Buhari as the ”Champion” that will coordinate the COVID-19 response in the sub-region.

ECOWAS leaders had a teleconference yesterday where they hailed President Buhari for the manner in which Nigeria has so far handled the Coronavirus pandemic and also appointed him as the ”Champion coordinator” for COVID-19 response in the sub-region. FFK reacted to the decision of the ECOWAS via his Twitter page and said this is mistake as President Buhari can barely manage himself. He said ECOWAS will regret the appointment given to Buhari because it was an error.
”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 shared on Twitter.
