PIB: Buhari Did What Obasanjo, Yar’Adua And Jonathan Couldn’t Do – Femi Adesina

Femi Adesina, the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to President Muhammadu Buhari, has praised his principal for signing the controversial 2021 Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB) into law.

KanyiDaily recalls that President Buhari had signed the controversial Petroleum Industry bill into law on Monday despite the agitations of host communities.

In a lengthy post shared on his Facebook page titled, ‘PMB: Call him the master finisher’, Adesina mocked former Nigerian presidents over their inability to sign the PIB into law during their tenures.

He said Buhari has proven that he is ‘Nigeria’s Messiah’ who is able to achieve what former Presidents Olusegun Obasanjo, late Umaru Yar’adua, and Goodluck Jonathan, did not have the courage to do.

Adesina said the past leaders were too timid to do the needful but that Buhari being a man with a large heart and a love for Nigerians, decided to take the bull by the horns and sign the PIB into law.

“President Muhammadu Buhari has done what Napoleon couldn’t do. Again and again. The Bill had defied Olusegun Obasanjo who introduced it, got the better of Umaru Musa Yar’Adua (God rest his soul), worsted Goodluck Jonathan, but has finally been subdued by Buhari.

“The man has proven to be adept at concluding things that had long trounced and vanquished many leaders before him.

“The PIB overwhelmed the first to eighth National Assembly, which couldn’t pass it into law. But through synergy and cooperation between the Executive and the Ninth Assembly, Nigeria now has a law for her cash cow, the oil and gas industry, more than 50 years after the last legislation, which had become obsolete.

“Step forward President Buhari, and be garlanded for being the Master Finisher,” Adesina wrote.

KanyiDaily recalls that Femi Adesina said Nigerians need a bully with an iron fist like President Buhari to knock sense into their contumacious heads.
