Dasuki, Kanu's Trials: Buhari Is Not Dictatorial – AGF Reacts

Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, has defended the President, Muhammadu Buhari, after he came under criticisms for insisting the Government would not release former NSA, Sambo Dasuki and Bifra agitator, Nnamdi Kanu, despite court directives.

The Attorney General said the president was just being a promoter of public interest and not a tyrant.
“These people compromised national interest leading to multiple loss of lives and property of innocent Nigerians and are now crying foul that they did nothing wrong. 
“Here, when you weigh national interest against individual interest, the latter must naturally give way."

Speaking with Vanguard, AGF Malami described as laughable, allegation by some Nigerians that President Buhari is a tyrant.

He said: “Are we now saying that the collective national interest should give way for the individual interest of a few people who are working hard to cause more havoc?

“There is no basis whatsoever to profile Mr. President as a tyrant given the fact that what he is doing is rooted in public interest and to advance the well being of the majority of Nigerians as opposed to the protection of a few privileged and powerful individuals.

“What the president is doing is to end the unfortunate regime of impunity which some of these people used to perpetuate injustice, corruption and lawlessness in the land and that does not amount to tyranny,” Malami said.

According to the minister, Buhari’s actions so far derive strength from Section 15 (4-5) of the Nigerian Constitution, which is to fight corruption holistically and give the nation a new lease of life and has nothing to do with tyranny or oppression.
