The
Presidency has reacted to a letter credited to Adamawa State Governor, Murtala
Nyako, describing it as an unmitigated leadership disaster and a sad betrayal
of trust by a major beneficiary of the Nigerian Nation.

Governor
Nyako’s letter was reportedly sent to his colleague northern governors.
A
statement by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Public Affairs,
Dr Doyin Okupe, said the the letter exposed Nyako as lacking a sense of history
as well as incapable of rising above parochial sentiments and possessing a
morbid hatred for facts and truth in public discourse.
According
to Dr Okupe, aside being divisive and intentionally aimed at inciting a section
of the country against the other, Governor Nyako’s

claims
are a pathetic embarrassment to the Nigerian Military from where Nyako derives
his career antecedents. He noted Nyako’s reference to Boko Haram as a
"phantom organization", adding that in a bid to demonise the Federal
Government, Governor Nyako linked the military operations against insurgents to
the activities of German dictator, Adolf Hitler.
He urged Governor
Nyako to suggest alternative to his frequent call for the withdrawal of
military from Borno, Yobe and Adamawa.
