The former presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), Omoyele Sowore, has reeled out major shortcomings of former President, Muhammadu Buhari who died on Sunday,July 13th, 2025.
TheNewsGuru reports that Buhari passed away in an undisclosed London clinic after a brief illness, and his remains are expected to arrive in the country on Monday for burial in Daura, Katsina state.
Reacting to his death, Sowore via his Facebook page alleged that the late Buhari slaughtered hundreds of Shiites, men, women, and even children.
The popular activist also accused the former Nigerian leader of ordering soldiers of the Nigerian Army to open fire on peaceful EndSARS protesters waving the Nigerian flag, in October 2020.
According to Sowore, the former president is behind the disappearance of Abubakar Idris, a social media influencer and staunch critic of the Nigerian government who was abducted on August 1, 2019.
He further alleged that late Buhari ordered the massacre of young Southeasterners whom he branded IPOB, adding that Buhari disobeyed court orders, jailed critics arbitrarily, destroyed the economy, and ruined everything he touched.
He wrote, “Muhammadu Buhari slaughtered hundreds of Shiites, men, women and even children. He ordered soldiers of the HQ Nigerian Army to open fire on peaceful #EndSARS protesters waving the Nigerian flag.
“He “disappeared” Dadiyata. He ordered the massacre of young Southeasterners whom he branded IPOB. He disobeyed court orders, jailed critics arbitrarily, destroyed the economy, and ruined everything he touched.
“And now, because he’s dead, some people with selective memory want us to mourn or worship him? Shameful. NO, we do not mourn tyrants. We remember their victims.”
