Those who want Buhari dead hired marabouts and bishops to perfect their plans –Buhari’s aide reveals

Personal Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on social media, Lauretta Onochie, has revealed that some elite Nigerian politicians travelled to Niger Republic, India and some other countries to hire marabouts to pray that the president dies.

She further disclosed that the same politicians have employed the services of pastors and bishops to pray for Buhari’s death.

Onochie stated this on Sunday adding that the religious leaders, after waiting in vain to hear the death of Buhari but were disappointed, resorted to attack him to the extent of announcing the President’s death on cloned websites, “therefore raising exaggerated concerns about his health”.

The aide made this disclosure on her Facebook page but failed to name the politicians and the pastors and bishops they rented to pray for Buhari’s death.

She said, “There must be a reason why some members of the political elite in Nigeria do not want to see President Muhammadu Buhari in power. They rigged him out of elections in the past and now that Nigerians overpowered them with the support of the card reader, they want him dead.

“In 2015, when it was obvious the electorates had their eyes set on him, they scammed President Jonathan to postpone the election and to further empty the Nigerian treasury so they could ‘buy’ more electorates.

“But they knew Nigerians were not ready to be bought so they pocketed the campaign loot. Those who took part in the scamming of ex-President Jonathan, are being asked to cough up and the junkiest of them all, is cursing and swearing because he is being held accountable.

“Transition was a scam. Financial books were cooked. They tried to cover up their financial wickedness and recklessness against this nation. They hired some school dropouts, products of their 16 years of mis-governance across the nation, to try to disrupt the nation.

“And then they hired red, green, blue, and all shades of media outfits to unleash a coordinated attack on his government. Bravely, he soldiers on.

“They travelled as far as Niger Republic, India, etc. and in vain, they engaged the services of marabouts and soothsayers (mere men), to their own disappointments.

“Pastors and bishops (mere men), whose unholy services were engaged to pray for his death, resorted to attacking him once they have prayed and he did not die”, she said.
