'Appointing Buhari as Champion for COVID-19 response is a mistake, he can barely manage himself– FFK tells ECOWAS





Femi Fani-Kayode, Former Aviation Minister, has faulted the decision of Presidents of West African countries under the aegis of ECOWAS Authority of Heads of State and Government, to appoint President Buhari as the ''Champion'' that will coordinate the COVID-19 response in the sub-region.

Recall that ECOWAS leaders had a teleconference yesterday where they hailed President Buhari for the manner in which Nigeria has so far handled the Coronavirus pandemic and also appointed him as the ''Champion coordinator'' for COVID-19 response in the sub-region.

Reacting to the appointment, FFK said this is mistake as President Buhari can barely manage himself. He said ECOWAS will regret the appointment given to Buhari because it was an error.

''The greatest mistake that the ECOWAS leaders have made is to appoint @MBuhari  as the leader of the fight against Covid 19. This is a cataclysmic error which they will deeply regret. He can barely manage himself & now you ask him to manage a sub-region of 400 million people?'' he wrote on Twitter
