EndSARS Protest: If Buhari hadn’t acted like a father, we’d have been talking about something else — Femi Adesina

Presidential aide, Femi Adesina, has said that if President Buhari hadn’t exercised the restraint and tolerance of a father, Nigerians would have been talking about something else in the wake of the crisis that enveloped the country after the #EndSARS protests were hijacked by hoodlums.

”There is truly a huge difference between an instructor, a tutor, and a father. One is a hireling, procured to pass knowledge, while the other is an insider, an interested party who is “pater familias,” (as my late dad would say).

All through the EndSARS protest and the riots, mayhem and looting that followed, President Buhari acted like a father. And though we have millions of instructors in this country, we have not many fathers. President Buhari is one.
